1. What is the equation of the axis of symmetry for the parabola with the equation y = - 2 ( x − 3 ) ( x + 7 ). Use your x-intercepts to help you determine it accurately. Select one: a. x = 2 b. x = 7 c. x = - 3 d. x = - 2 2. To solve the equation 2x 2 − 10x = 12 by completing the square one must add which of the following to both sides of the equation. Select one: a. - 5 b. 25 / 4 c. 5 / 2 d. 25
