Question 1089449: A clown is riding a single wheel cycle along a highwire from point a to point B. These tow points are the same height, however as the clwon cycles the highwire decrease in height to a munimum point 2m above the ground. assume highwire represent parabolic curv. 
Task: sketch this situation and then use the quadratic equation y=x^2-2x-3 to find the height from which the clwon begans his journey alnon the highwire.

Each separate word in this post makes sense, but taken all together, they do not make sense.

I am sure that no one textbook can offer such formulation.

It means that somebody tries to invent his own version.

It is not bad, but requires good knowledge of subject (expert knowledge, actually), which is not seen from this text.

The Math is like music:  both are based on harmony.


A professional musician hears a disharmony by his/her ear.  Explanations are not required.

Similarly,  I hear disharmony in this text.
