#x=1/2#

Explanation:

#"the axis of symmetry passes through the vertex, is a vertical"#
#"line with equation x = c where c is the value of the "#
#"x-coordinate of the vertex"#

#"for a parabola in standard form "y=ax^2+bx+c#

#x_(color(red)"vertex")=-b/(2a)#

#y=-x^2+x+3" is in standard form"#

#"with "a=-1,b=1,c=3#

#rArrx_(color(red)"vertex")=-1/(-2)=1/2#

#rArr"axis of symmetry is "x=1/2# graph{(y+x^2-x-3)(y-1000x+500)=0 [-10, 10, -5, 5]}
