9 [Turn Over 7 A portion of a suspension bridge has a curved cable hanging between two pillars which can be modelled by a quadratic function. In the model, x m is the horizontal distance from the left pillar and y m is the height of the cable above the bridge. Vertical supporting wires are spread out in 10 equal intervals of 0.5 m apart. At its lowest point, the cable is situated 2.5 m above the bridge. (a) Write down the co-ordinates of the lowest point. [1] (b) Form a quadratic equation in the form 2( )y a x b c to model this situation. Hence, find the value of a, b and c. [4] O x y 0.5m 15m 15m 2.5m bridge bridge
