The main cable of a suspension bridge forms a parabola modeled by the equation y = a(x – h)2 + k where y is the height in feet of the cable above the road, x is the horizontal distance in feet from the right bridge support, a is a constant, and (h, k) is the parabola’s vertex. What is the maximum and minimum height of the bridge modeled by the equation y = 0.005(x – 60)2 + 8?

Look at this system of equations. -3x + 3y = 12 y = x + 4 the solution set of this system is best explained by which of these statements? a) the graphs of the equations are the same line because the equations have the same slope and the same y-intercept. the system has infinitely many solutions. b) the graphs of the equations are parallel lines because they have the same slope but different y-intercepts. the system has no solution. c) the graphs of the equations are lines that intersect at one point because the equations have the same slope but different y-intercepts. the system has exactly one solution. d) the graphs of the equations are lines that intersect at one point because the equations have the same slope and the same y-intercept. the system has exactly one solution.
