The x-value of the vertex will be half-ways between the two zeroes. Half-ways between x = 10 and x = 34 is x = 22; so the vertex is the point (22, 24).
An equation of a parabola is: y - k = a(x - h)² where the vertex is (h, k) = (22, 24).
---> y - 24 = a(x - 22)² Since a point on the graph is (10, 0), replaceng x with 10 and y with 0:
---> 0 - 24 = a(10 - 22)²
---> -24 = a(-12)²
---> -24 = 144a
---> a = =1/6
Equaiton is: y - 24 = (-1/6)(x - 22)²
