Determining parabolic equation

Reference no: EM13118476

Your bridge design has two towers, each with height ( h) of 300 ft above the road. Two suspension cables connect the two towers. The equation modeling the shape of these cables is parabolic. The total distance (d) between the two towers must be 3500 feet. The lowest point (l) of the cable above the road must meet 8 feet.

Find the parabolic equation.
