Enter an equation for the line of symmetry for the function f(x) = 2(x-5)^2 + 8.

Sagot :

so let's notice that, the equation is f(x) in x-terms, meaning the variable "x" is the independent and thus the parabola is a vertical parabola.  Also let's notice that the equation is already in vertex form, keeping in mind that the  axis of symmetry occurs for a vertical parabola at the x-coordinate.
