Question

what is the axis of symmetry for this quadratic function? f(x) = 5x^2 - 3x + 5 x = ? axis of symmetry: x = -b/2a simplify your answer completely

Explanation:

Step1: Identify a and b

For \( f(x)=5x^2 -3x +5 \), \( a=5 \), \( b=-3 \)

Step2: Apply axis formula

\( x=-\frac{b}{2a}=-\frac{(-3)}{2\times5}=\frac{3}{10} \)

Answer:

\( x = \frac{3}{10} \)
