I presume you mean that as opposed to .

Given that assumption, you can re-write your equation as:

to put it in the form, with a = 1/4, b = 0, and c = 0.

Now recall that the x-coordinate of the parabola vertex is . In this case: .

And the y-coordinate of the vertex is at .

Now we know that the vertex is at (0,0).

We know that the axis of symmetry is a vertical line that intersects the vertex, so the equation of the axis is
