Give the coordinates of the vertex and the equation of the axis of symmetry y=x^2-14x-5.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "Rewrite as:
\n" ); document.write( "x^2-14x+?=y+5+?
\n" ); document.write( "Complete the square:
\n" ); document.write( "x^2-14x+49 = y+5+49
\n" ); document.write( "(x-7)^2=y+54
\n" ); document.write( "Vertex is at (7,-54)
\n" ); document.write( "Axis of symmetry is x=7\r
