• parabola
• axis of symmetry
• line of dashes

A parabola has a vertex at (-3,2).
Where is the axis of symmetry?

• y = -2
• x = 3
• x = -3
• y = 2

The graph of a quadratic function is called a

Find the axis of symmetry for
f(x) = x²- 8x + 15.

• x = -4
• x = 4
• y = 4
• y = -4

Determine the vertex of the parabola:
y = 5x² - 20x + 13

• (5, -7)
• (-2, -7)
• (2, -7)
• (-7, -2)

Solve x² + x – 72 = 0.

• x = -8

• x = -8 or x = 9

• x = 8 or x = -9
