The vertex of a parabola is located at \( (-3 \), \( 0) \). What would be the axis of symmetry? Draw a picture if you have to. Type a response

The vertex of the parabola is at \( (-3, 0) \). For any parabola, the axis of symmetry is a vertical line that passes through the vertex. This means the equation of the axis of symmetry is: \[ x = -3 \] Here is a simple diagram illustrating the vertex and the axis of symmetry: \[ \begin{array}{c} \text{Axis of symmetry: } x = -3 \\ \quad\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad | \\ \quad\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad | \\ \quad\quad\quad (-3, 0)\bullet \quad\quad\text{(Vertex)} \\ \quad\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad | \\ \quad\quad\quad\quad\quad\quad | \\ \end{array} \] Thus, the axis of symmetry for the parabola is \( x = -3 \).
