Can you first make the system? Three points, each give an equation; and you know this is as because the symmetry axis is given as horizontal. Use the general equation as .
Use each point to make a separate equation and then simplify as necessary. That will be your system of equations to solve. The variables you are solving are the coefficients a, b, and c.
