Question

how to find the axis of symmetry of a parabola with two symmetric points on the parabola are (-3,5) and (7,5) show work pls

Answer 1

x=2.

Explanation:

1) if the given points are (-3;5) and (7;5), then the required axis of symmetry is vertical. Then

2) the required axis intersects the section between (-3;5) and (7;5) in its midpoint;

3) the coordinates of the midpoint above are (2;5), then the required axis is:

x=2.
