Question

Graph the function. label the vertex and axis of symmetry
f(x) = -6x^2 - 4x - 5

Answer 1

Vertex is (-1/3, -13/3)

Axis of symmetry is x = -1/3

Explanation:

For the vertex, you need to change it into vertex form which is y = a(x - h)^2 + k

Vertex form for this equation is:

Y = -6(x + 1/3)^3 - 13/3

To find the vertex, the formula is (h,k)

So, ( -1/3, -13/3)
