Answer 1

To identify the vertex and the axis of symmetry of the parabola, we need to look at the properties of the graph.

1. Vertex: The vertex of a parabola (which is the highest or lowest point, depending on the direction it opens) can be identified visually from the graph. It is the point where the parabola changes direction.

2. Axis of Symmetry: The axis of symmetry is a vertical line that divides the parabola into two mirror-image halves. It passes through the vertex.

If you can provide the coordinates of the vertex from the graph, I can help format the answer for you accordingly. For example, if the vertex appears to be at the point (h, k), you would provide that as the answer in parentheses (h, k).

The axis of symmetry can be expressed in the form \( x = h \), where \( h \) is the x-coordinate of the vertex.

Please provide the vertex coordinates or any additional details from the graph so I can assist you further!
