What is the axis of symmetry of h(x) = -2x2 + 12x - 3?
x = -15, x = -3, x = 3, x = 15
Solution:
The axis of symmetry is the line that divides a parabola into two identical parts.
The parabola faces downwards as the leading coefficient is negative.
The axis of symmetry of the given parabola is along the y-axis.
The axis of symmetry is a vertical line and is given by x = - b/ 2a
Let the parabola be y = -2x2 + 12x - 3.
Here, a = -2, b = 12 and c = -3.
The axis of symmetry is x = -b/ 2a
x = -12/(2)(-2)
x = -12/ -4
x = 3
The axis of symmetry is x = 3
What is the axis of symmetry of h(x) = -2x2 + 12x - 3?
Summary:
The angle of symmetry of the equation h(x) = -2x2 + 12x - 3 is 3.
