I suspect the answer is yes, but it all depends on the exact form of the equation.

∙ 11y agoAxisymmetry is a form of symmetry around an axis - also known as rotational symmetry.
The form is not specified in the question so it is hard to tell. But two parabolas with different vertices can certainly have the same axis of symmetry.
The axis of symmetry for a parabola of the form y = ax2 + bx + c is x = -b/2a So the axis is x = -2/2*(-3) or x=1/3
Symmetry is the exact correspondence of form and constituent configuration on opposite sides of a dividing line or plane or about a center or an axis.
x-axis
axis of symmetry is x=0 Vertex is (0,0) So the answer is : YES
In the form y = ax² + bx + c the axis of symmetry is given by the line x = -b/2a The axis of symmetry runs through the vertex, and the vertex is given by (-b/2a, -b²/4a + c). For y = 2x² + 4x - 10: → axis of symmetry is x = -4/(2×2) = -4/4 = -1 → vertex = (-1, -4²/(4×2) - 10) = (-1, -16/8 - 10) = (-1, -12)
Assume the expression is: y = x² - 6x + 5 Complete the squares to get: y = x² - 6x + 9 + 5 - 9 = (x - 3)² - 4 By the vertex form: y = a(x - h)² + k where x = h is the axis of symmetry x = 3 is the axis of symmetry.
The function would be in the form of ax2+c. The axis of symmetry would be the y-axis, or x = 0, because b would be zero. Likewise, the y-intercept is not important, as any value of c will still yield a vertex at the y-intercept.

Your equation must be in y=ax^2+bx+c form Then the equation is x= -b/2a That is how you find the axis of symmetry
Lewis Carroll wrote these lines about a quadratic:Yet what are all such gaieties to meWhose thoughts are full of indices and surds?x*x + 7x + 53 = 11/3
It is y = -b/(2a)
The axis of symmetry for a parabola of the form y = ax2 + bx + c is x = -b/2a So the axis is x = -2/2*(-3) or x=1/3
Adult echinoderms have pentaradial symmetry, meaning they are typically organized in a five-fold radial pattern around a central axis. This unique form of symmetry is characteristic of this group of marine animals.
It depends on the type of triangle: -- scalene triangles have three sides of different length, and no lines of symmetry -- isoceles triangles have one line of symmetry that includes the apex -- equilateral triangles have three lines of symmetry, all bisectors through a vertex
