<u>Answer:</u>
Height of cables = 23.75 meters
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
We are given that the road is suspended from twin towers whose cables are parabolic in shape.
For this situation, imagine a graph where the x-axis represent the road surface and the point (0,0) represents the point that is on the road surface midway between the two towers.
Then draw a parabola having vertex at (0,0) and curving upwards on either side of the vertex at a distance of 
or 
, and y at 95.
We know that the equation of a parabola is in the form 
and here it passes through the point 
.
So new equation for parabola would be 
.
Now we have to find the height 
of the cable when 
.
y = 23.75 meters
The slope and y-intercept of this function is
B. The slope is 5/6, The y-intercept is (0, -3
<h3>How to find the slope and the y-intercept</h3>
Linear function is a function of the form y = mx + c
m = slope
c = intercept
The slope is represented as m, The slope by definition is the ratio change of the output values to the input values
the slope, m calculated using the points (0, -3) and (6, 2)
m = (y₀ - y₁) / (x₀ - x₁)
m = (2 - -3) / (6 - 0)
m = (5) / (6)
m = 5/6
c = y intercept, from the table
c = -3
