How do i find the axis of symmetry for a parabola

Explanation given below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to put the parabola in the form   , which is the standard form of a parabola

Note: a is the coefficient before x^2 term, b is the coefficient before x term, and c is the independent constant term

The axis of symmetry divides the parabola symmetrically. The axis of symmetry has the equation  

Where a and b are the respective values shown above

So, that is how you get the axis of symmetry of any parabola.

The equation of the axis of symmetry of the parabola is x = h,

 where h is the x-coordinate of the vertex point

Step-by-step explanation:

* The axis of symmetry is the line which divides the

 shape into two congruent parts

* The general form of the quadratic equation is:

 ax² + bx + c = 0

* The quadratic equation is represented graphically by parabola

∵ The parabola has minimum point or maximum point

∴ The axis of symmetry of the parabola is passing through this point

   This point is called the vertex point or the turning point

- Lets find this point:

* the x-coordinate of this point calculated from the equation

 x- coordinate of the vertex point h = -b/2a

- where b is the coefficient of x and a is the coefficient of x²

∴  The equation of the axis of symmetry of the parabola is x = -b/2a

EX:

- If ⇒ x² - 4x + 4 = 0

∵ a = 1 , b = -4

∴ h = -(-4)/2(1) = 2

∴ The equation of the axis of symmetry of the parabola is x = 2

The graph show you the axis of symmetry

part a

in a city ice cream is mostly only bought when the temperature is very high as ice cream cools down our

so we can derive the conclusion that as the temperature increases the number of ice creams sold also increases

part b

y intercept is 5

slope is 2
