Question 1036834: The points (-1,14) and (9,14) are located on the same parabola.what is the equation for the axis of symmetry for this parabola? Answer by Boreal(15235) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! It is x=4. A parabola has the same y-value for x-values equidistant from the line of symmetry.
Here, the x values add to 8 and half of that is the axis of symmetry. x=9 and x=-1 are both 5 units away from 4.
