The dependent value is determine by the value of the independent value. in other words, the dependent value is what you get when you take the independent value and substitute it in the original equation or situation. The relationship is multiplicative because you must first multiply the independent value in the equation where the x is before you can add or subtract to get your answer.<span />
Find the minimum point on the parabola, and take the x component of the coordinate. Then, put that number into this equation: x = (whatever the number was) so in this case the axis (or line) of symmetry is x = 1
The answer is W= -4
