Use the formula below:
[tex] \large \boxed{h = - \frac{b}{2a} }[/tex]
From the given equation:
[tex] \large{y = 2 {x}^{2} - 6x + 2}[/tex]
Substitute a = 2 and b = -6 in the formula.
[tex] \large{h = - \frac{ - 6}{2(2)} } \\ \large{h = - \frac{ - 6}{4} } \\ \large{h = - \frac{ - 3}{2} \longrightarrow \boxed{h = \frac{3}{2} }}[/tex]
Since h is from (h,k). From an ordered pair, h = x and k = y. When answering the axis of symmetry, you should answer in term of x.
Answer
- The axis of symmetry is x = 3/2
