(a) y = x^2 + 2x + k

sub in x =-3 and y=0

0 = (-3)^2 + 2(-3) + k
0 = 9 - 6 + k
k = 3

* k= -3
b) y = x^2 +2x - 3
Let a be x coordinate of Q.
y = (x+3)(x-a)
y = x^2 + 3x - ax - 3a
By comparing coefficients,
3-a = 2
or -3 = -3a

THEREFORE,
a=1

c) By completing the square:
y = x^2 + 2x -3
y = x^2 + 2x + (2/2)^2 - (2/2)^2 - 3
y = (x+1)^2 - 4

Turning point: (-1, -4)
Since line of symmetry = to vertical line passing through the turning point, x= -1 is the line of symmetry.
