axis y=(x+9)(x+8)

axis

y = (x + 9) (x + 8)

x = - \frac{17}{2}

Solution steps

y = (x + 9) (x + 8)

Rewrite

y = (x + 9) (x + 8)

in the standard form

4 \cdot \frac{1}{4} (y - (- \frac{1}{4})) = (x - (- \frac{17}{2}))^{2}

Therefore parabola properties are:

(h, k) = (- \frac{17}{2}, - \frac{1}{4}), p = \frac{1}{4}

Parabola is of the form

4 p (y - k) = (x - h)^{2}

and is symmetric around the

y

-axis

Axis of symmetry is a line parallel to the

y

-axis which intersects the vertex:

x = - \frac{17}{2}

y^{2} + 12 x - 2 y - 11 = 0

(x + 3)^{2} = 12 y

y = x^{2} - 3 x - 40

x = (3 - y)^{2}

y = 7 x^{2} - 8
