Question 926380: The equation of the axis of symmetry of the graph of a quadratic function is x=-6. In addition the graph passes through the points (4,5) and (-6,4). Find the equation of this quadratic function in standard form. Answer by josgarithmetic(39617) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Think how these points occur in the cartesian plane. The vertex is (-6,4). The parabola equation is something like . The other point lets you find the factor, "a".
