I am to graph the quadratic function, identify the axis of symmetry, and the coordinates of the vertex
\n" ); document.write( " For y = -x^2+5x-3
\n" ); document.write( "-x^2+5x = y+3
\n" ); document.write( "-(x^2-5x) = y+3
\n" ); document.write( "-(x^2 - 5x + (5/2)^2) = y+3 -(5/2)^2
\n" ); document.write( "-(x-(5/2))^2 = y+(12/4)-(25/4)
\n" ); document.write( "-(x-(5/2))^2 = y-(13/4)
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Axis of symmetry:: x = 5/2
\n" ); document.write( "----
\n" ); document.write( "Vertex:: When x = 5/2, y = 13/4
\n" ); document.write( "============================
