Considering the definition of axis of symmetry, the axis of symmetry of the graph of the function f(x) = 3x²+ 12x+ 9 is x=-2.
<h3>Axis of symmetry</h3>An axis of symmetry is an imaginary reference line that, when dividing any shape into two parts, its opposite points are equidistant from each other, that is, they are symmetrical.
In other words, the axis of symmetry is a vertical line that divides the parabola into two congruent halves.
The axis of symmetry is the line perpendicular to the "x" axis that contains the vertex of the function, that is, it always passes through the vertex of the parabola. So the x-coordinate of the vertex is the equation of the axis of symmetry.
That is, in a quadratic function that has the form:
f(x)= ax² + bx + c
the axis of symmetry is a vertical line and it is defined as .
In this case, you know:
- a= 3
- b=12
- c=9
Replacing in the definition of axis of symmetry:
Solving:
<u><em>x= -2</em></u>
Finally, the axis of symmetry of the graph of the function f(x) = 3x²+ 12x+ 9 is x=-2.

Answer:
We have been given a unit circle which is cut at k different points to produce k different arcs. Now we can see firstly that the sum of lengths of all k arks is equal to the circumference:
Now consider the largest arc to have length \small l . And we represent all the other arcs to be some constant times this length.
we get :
where C(i) is a constant coefficient obviously between 0 and 1.
All that I want to say by using this step is that after we choose the largest length (or any length for that matter) the other fractions appear according to the above summation constraint. [This step may even be avoided depending on how much precaution you wanna take when deriving a relation.]
So since there is no bias, and \small l may come out to be any value from [0 , 2π] with equal probability, the expected value is then defined as just the average value of all the samples.
We already know the sum so it is easy to compute the average :
