Find the coordinates of the vertex and the equation of the axis of symmetry of the parabola with the given equation.

Question

y = 8x2 + 48x − 3

vertex
(x, y) = _____________


axis of symmetry _____________

Answer 1

for y = ax^2 + bx + c
the x of the vertex is given by -b/(2a)
once you have that x, sub it back into the original equation to find the corresponding y of the vertex.
