Find the coordinates of the vertex and the equation of the axis of symmetry for the parabola with the given equation.

y = x2 - 7x + 12

vertex=?

axis line of symmetry equation?

The vertex is at (3.5, - 0.25)

and the axis of symmetry is x = 3.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert to vertex form:

y = x^2 - 7x + 12

y = (x - 3.5) ^2 - 3.5^2 + 12

y = (x - 3.5) ^2 - 0.25

y = (x - 3.5) ^2 - 0.25.

So the vertex is at (3.5, - 0.25)

and

the axis of symmetry is x = 3.5.
