Question 443082: Please help me solve this
there is a golden arch.The shape of a maximum quadratic graph. X is the width.Y is the height. X is 245m.y is 300m
I need to know 3 appropriate places that i can put the origin of the arch on a quadratic graph. And I have to state with it, the equation in turning point form (vertex form)
thank you.
I put the origins as (0,0), (-245,0) and(245,0 )

------------------------------------------------
Put the top at (0,300)
Put the base end points at (-245/2,0) and (245/2,0)
