Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The axis of symmetry is a vertical line passing through the vertex of the quadratic function, with equation

x = c ( c is the x- coordinate of the vertex )

The equation of a quadratic function in vertex form is

• y = a(x - h)² + k

(h, k ) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

given

y = 2(x + 3)² + 5 , that is

y = 2(x - (- 3) )² + 5 ← in vertex form

with h = - 3 , k = 5 and a = 2

Then coordinates of the vertex = (- 3, 5 )

Thus equation of axis of symmetry is

x = - 3
