Answer

The line of symmetry x = -4

Step by step explanation

Here we have to use the formula.

The symmetry of a parabola x = -b/2a

Now compare the given equation y = 3x^2 + 24x -1 with the general form y = ax^2 + bx + c and identify the value of "a" and "b"


Here a = 3 and b = 24. Now plug in these values in to the formula to find the line of symmetry.

x = -24/ 2(3)

x = -24/6

x = -4

Therefore, the line of symmetry x = -4.

Thank you.
