Question

A parabola has its axis of symmetry at x = -2 and passes through the point (-5, 6). Find another point that passes through the parabola.

Answer 1

Answer:

(1,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the parabola is symmetrical at x=-2, we know that if you take the value for (x-a) and (x+a) where a is any constant, the y values will be the same for both of those x coordinates. so, we can take the coordinate that we know, (-5,6), realize that it is -3 away from -2. then we can add three to get 1 and use the same y coordinate, getting (1,6)
