Find the axis of symmetry and the vertex and graph the following: f(x)=(x+2)(x-4)

something noteworthy is that the independent and squared variable in this case will be the "x", namely the graph of that quadratic is a vertical parabola.

so the parabola has solutions at x = -2 and x = 4, and its vertex will be half-way between those two guys, namely at x = 1.

since this is a vertical parabola, its axis of symmetry, the line that splits its into twin sides, will be a vertical line, and it'll be the x-coordinate of the vertex, since the vertex hasa a coordinate of x = 1, then the axis of symmetry is the vertical line of x = 1.

answer: options?

step-by-step explanation:

correct choice is b

step-by-step explanation:

when you calculate the average rate of change of a function, you are finding the slope of the secant line between the two points. for the function the average rate of change from point to point can be calculated as

to find the average rate of change from day 2 to day 10, note that at day 2, 8 houses were sold, so a(2,8) and at day 10, 2 houses were sold, so b(10,2). thus,
