Question

Find the equation of the axis of
symmetry for this function.

Answer 1

x = 1

Explanation:

Given a parabola in standard form

f(x) = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )

Then the equation of the axis of symmetry is

x = -
`(b)/(2a)`

f(x) = 4x² - 8x + 5 ← is in standard form

with a = 4 and b = - 8 , then equation of axis of symmetry is

x = -
`(-8)/(8)` = 1
