Question

The point (1, 7) is on the graph of the parabola y = 2x^2 + 4x + 1. What are the coordinates of the point that is the reflection of (1,7) across the axis of symmetry?

Answer 1

In this case, we'll have to carry out several steps to find the solution.

Step 01:

Data

y = 2x² + 4x + 1

point (1 , 7)

reflection point = ?

Step 02:

Parabola Graph

Reflection point (1 , 7) ===> (-3 , 7)

The answer is:

The reflection point is (-3 , 7)
