The function is
.
Find the vertex, axis symmetry and direction of opening.
\The vertex form of a parabola is
.
Where
is the vertex,
is the axis of symmetry and
determines the shape of the parabola and the direction in which it opens.
Therefore vertex is
.
The equation of axis of symmetry is
.
The value of
is negative,the parabola opens down.
