Question 971962: red bird starts his flight from point (10,0) and lands at point (38,0). Use the interprets to write the quadratic equation that describes red birds flight. we need to find the maximum height, Axis of Symmetry, and the distance travelled. I've already found the A.O.S. and distance travelled but still need to find the maximum height

Description is not complete. You have only enough information to know the x value but not the y value. Axis of symmetry, in the exact middle x value of the two given zeros, and nothing more can be found.

Maximum height? More information needed.

.
a and k might be anything, as long as , and the two given roots or zeros will hold.
