Step-by-step explanation:
This equation for a parabola is given in vertex form, so it is very simple to extract the coordinates of its vertex, by using the opposite of the number that accompanies the variable "x" in the squared expression (opposite of 2) for the vertex's x-value, and the value of the constant (-6) for the vertex's y-value.
The vertex coordinates are therefore: (-2,-6)
The equation of the axis of symmetry of the parabola is a vertical line passing through the vertex. Since all vertical lines have the shape x = constant in our case, in order to pass through (-2,-6) the vertical line is defined by the equation: x = -2.
See image attached to find the vertex drawn as a red point, and the axis of symmetry as an orange vertical line passing through it.
Answer:
(0,1)
Step-by-step explanation:
There are infinite number of (x,y) pairs in a line, so it should be easy to use any value for one of the coordinates (x or y) and find what the other coordinate should be. We can use a simple value that would make our solving easy, for example x = 0. We use this value to replace x in the equation of the line, and solve for y:
Therefore the pair (0,1) is a solution for the given equation.
