Algebra 2 Team: Question 8

In Facetiousland, the world is flat and everything can be mapped perfectly with a
Cartesian coordinate system. Dianne and Richard are fleeing from the FBI in
Facetiousland; in order to avoid detection, they must make stops at (1, 0), (-1, 16), and (2,
1). After carefully examining a secret map, Richard discovers PharmaExpress, a
parabolic road that passes through all three points.
What is the parabolic function that passes through all three these points? Express your
answer in the following form: y = Ax 2 + Bx + C

Algebra 2 Team: Question 12

In an effort to increase his presidential powers, Grant intends to trap Ms. Herron and Mr.
Rohan in an enchanted garden. Grant has 200 feet of magic fencing to build a boundary
for the garden; furthermore, he intends to use an infinite strip of the Everglades as one
side of the gardens boundary. By the laws and regulations of magic, Grant must use all
of his fencing, the garden must be a rectangle, and the area of the garden must be as large
as possible.
Given these conditions, what will be the area of Grants enchanted garden in square feet?
