There are certain quadratic functions that can be written in factored form:. Using the fact that a quadratic function is symmetrical we can use the zeros of the function to help determine the maximum/minimum value and where it occurs. To determine the equation of the axis of symmetry we can calculate the average value of the zeros. Equation of axis = of symmetry Recall that the value of the axis of symmetry is equal to the x-coordinate of the vertex. So after you find this value (x), you can substitute it into your function to find the maximum/minimum value (y). Example 6: The sum of two numbers is 40.
