Question 42456: Can someone please show me how to do this? I have to identify the axis of symmetry, create a table of values and insert the graph. I can do the graph, but I can't figure out how to do the other parts of the problem.
The equation is:
y = x^2 - 5x + 3
Thanks! Answer by Nate(3500) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! This is a vertical parabola, so the axis of symmetry is a vertical line.
y = x^2 - 5x + 3
vertex: (2.5,-3.25)
Axis of Symmetry:
Table:
x = -1
y = 9
......
x = 0
y = 3
......
x = 1
y = -1
