Question

Which must be true of a quadratic function whose vertex is the same as its y-intercept?

Answer 1

Answer:  Choice A

The axis of symmetry for the function is x = 0.

===========================================================

Explanation:

The vertex is on the axis of symmetry. Since the vertex is on the y axis, this means the y axis itself is the axis of symmetry. The y axis is represented by the equation x = 0. Every point on the y axis has an x coordinate of 0. Example points are (0,2) and (0,5).

This parabola may have 0 roots, 1 root, or 2 roots.
