decimals. His math teacher asks him take a remedial test to check if he has

misconception or not. The test outcome is red if Himansh has the

misconception and green if he does not have the misconception. Based on

of the Clifton Bridge, located in Bristol, UK. In order to do this, he must first

find the equation of a parabola equivalent to the one made in Clifton Bridge.

He found a picture of the Clifton bridge, and placed it on a coordinate grid,

as shown below. He noted that the parabola crossed the points (10, 3),

(26, 3) and (30, 4) on the grid.

If the required parabola is of the form y = ax2 + bx + c, then help Henry by

finding a, b and c, and hence finding the equation of the parabola. Show

your work.
