Answer:
Explanation:
Given
To find
- The equation of the line of symmetry
Solution
The line of symmetry passes through the vertex of the parabola
The vertex is determined by the formula:
- x = -b/2a
- Where b and a are constants from the standard form of ax² + bx + c = 0
Substituting values from the given equation:
- x = -(-2)/2(5) = 1/5
- x = 1/5 is the line of symmetry
