how do you find the equation of a parabola using 3 points?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

depends on what you are given

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ooh ok we can probably do this you can start with \[y=ax^2+bx+c\] and then use the three point to get three equations in the three unknowns \(a,b,c\)

OpenStudy (hopehope118):

okay, I think I get it now. Thank you

it can be either of the form x=ay^2 +by+c
