Can anyone plz help me out with this?

I am all mixed up
I also need to find the axis of symmetry as well.
Thanks for the help
I appreciate it

Answer:

Down here ↓↓↓↓↓

Explanation:

(a) Does the Parabola open upward or downward

Upward - the open "space" is above the vertex, so it opens upward

(b) X and y intercepts

x - intercepts : where the graph touches the x - axis

x - intercepts = (2, 0) , (4, 0)

Warning, don't get it mixed up! X - intercepts have y - values of 0, and y - intercepts have x - values of 0

y - intercepts : where the graph touches the y - axis

y - intercepts = (0, 3)

(c) Vertex of the parabola

vertex: the point of symmetry

vertex : (4, -1)

(d) Axis of symmetry

axis of symmetry : x - value of vertex

axis of symmetry : x = 4
