Name: The Golden Gate bridge is very similar to a parabola. The main span cables are suspended between two towers 4200 feet apart and 500 feet above the road. Half way between, the cables get as low as 10 feet above the road. Write an equation that models the shape of the cables/bridge. Assume vertex is on the y-axis. (Hint: re-watch the second parabolic video presented in the notes)
