Show hintHide hint
Identify a and b values first.
Question 2.
What is the axis of symmetry for f(x) = 3x^2 - 12x + 9?
Show hintHide hint
Calculate -b/2a.
3Question 3.
What is the formula for the axis of symmetry?
- x = -b/2a
- x = b/2a
- x = -a/2b
Show hintHide hint
Remember this formula helps find the symmetry point on the graph.
4Question 4.
True or False: The axis of symmetry can be found using the values of a and b in the quadratic formula.
- True
- False
Show hintHide hint
Think about how the formula uses these values.
Question 5.
For the quadratic function f(x) = -3x^2 + 12x - 5, determine the axis of symmetry and sketch the graph.
Show hintHide hint
Start with the formula and then find the vertex location.
Question 6.
Consider f(x) = x^2 - 8x + 15. Find the axis of symmetry, vertex, and sketch the complete graph.
Show hintHide hint
Use the formula to find the axis and substitute to find the vertex.
