Thread: Determine the equation of the line of symmetry of the quadratic function ?

Determine the equation of the line of symmetry of the quadratic function given bellow.

The equation of the line of symmetry is of the form x = k. What is the value of k?

How do I go about solving this?


-Thanks

I'm guessing:

The general form of the equation of the function is



where k is the x-coordinate of the vertex and h is the y-coordinate of the vertex.
