Answer

vertex: $\left(0, 5\right)$ axis of symmetry: $x=0$ minimum value: $5$ range: $y\ge 5$

Work Step by Step

Use a graphing utility to graph the given function. Refer to the graph below. The vertex is the lowest or highest point on the parabola. Notice that the vertex is at $\left(0, 5\right)$. The axis of symmetry of the graph is the line $x=h$ where $h$ is the $x$-coordinate of the vertex. Thus, the axis of symmetry is $x=0$. The parabola opens upward so the $y$-coordinate of the vertex is the minimum value. Hence, the minimum value is $5$. The values of the function are all greater than or equal to $5$. Thus, the range is $y\ge 5$. vertex: $\left(0, 5\right)$ axis of symmetry: $x=0$ minimum value: $5$ range: $y\ge 5$
