Question

Find the zeros and the axis of symmetry of the parabola.

a. zeros: 3, 5; x = 4
b. zeros: 3, 5; x = 8
c. zeros: 2, 4; x = 6
d. zeros: 2, 4; x = 3

Answer 1

d. zeros: 2, 4 axis of symmetry: x = 3

Explanation:

The zeros are the values of x where the graph crosses the x-axis

zeros = 2, 4

The axis of symmetry is the vertical line thru the vertex of the parabola

The vertex is (3, -1), so x = 3 is the axis of symmetry

Answer 2

ok i think its D

Explanation:

2,4; x= 3

i am not 100% but like i looked up examples and that seems to be the only one that looks right
