Question

Plot the vertex and the axis of symmetry of this function: f(x)=(x-3)^2 +5

Answer 1

the vertex is (3,5), and the axis of symmetry is x = 3

Explanation:

1. This parabola is graphed in vertex form, which is a(x-h)²+k, and the vertex will always be (h,k).

2. In this case, the vertex is (3,5).

3. The formula for finding the axis of symmetry in vertex form is x = h.

4. The axis of symmetry is x = 3
