$\"f%28x%29=x%5E2%2F4-x%2F8-49%2F4\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"f%28x%29=%281%2F4%29%28x%5E2-x%2F2%2B1%2F16%29-49%2F4-1%2F64\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"f%28x%29=%281%2F4%29%28x-1%2F4%29%5E2-784%2F64-1%2F64\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"f%28x%29=%281%2F4%29%28x-1%2F4%29%5E2-785%2F64\"$
\n" ); document.write( "So then the vertex occurs at $\"x=1%2F4\"$ , which is also the location of the axis of symmetry.
\n" ); document.write( "So then the other root occurs at,
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=1%2F4%2Babs%281%2F4-%28-6.75%29%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=1%2F4%2B7\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"x=7.25\"$ \n" ); document.write( "
