Hey all,
Could anyone please, please help me with this question that I am struggling with? I'm not to sure how to upload the graph but I will try to describe it as best I can.
There is a parabola marked ABC, where A and C are the x-intercepts and B is the vertex. B is (0,50) whilst AC equates to 100m. I don't understand how to find the equation of the arc.
Answer is supposed to be x^2 = -50(y-50).
Thank you very much. Any help would be extremely appreciated.
