It seems like there might have been an issue with the image not being included. However, I can help you understand how to identify the vertex and axis of symmetry of a parabola based on its general form.

1. **Vertex**: The vertex of a parabola in standard form \(y = ax^2 + bx + c\) can be found using the formula:
\[
x = -\frac{b}{2a}
\]
Once you find the x-coordinate, substitute it back into the equation to find the y-coordinate of the vertex.

2. **Axis of Symmetry**: The axis of symmetry is a vertical line that passes through the vertex. It can be expressed as:
\[
x = -\frac{b}{2a}
\]

If you can provide the equation or relevant details about the parabola, I can help you calculate the vertex and axis of symmetry!
