Y =ax² + bx +c
1) Point (0,7)
7 = a*0² +b*0 +c
c = 7
y=ax² + bx + 7
2) Point (1,4)
4=a*1² + b*1 + 7, ----> 4 = a +b + 7, ------> a+b= - 3
3) Point (2, 5)
5=a*2² + b*2 + 7, ----> 5=4a+2b +7,---> -2=4a+2b, ----> -1=2a + b
4) a+b= - 3, ----> b= -3 - a (substitute in the second equation)
2a+b= -1
2a - 3 - a = -1, ----> a - 3 = -1, a =2
5) a+b= - 3
2 + b = -3
b = -5
y=2x² - 5x + 7

The total number of cookies baked by grandma = 96
Number of grandchildren = 8
As given, all cookies were evenly divided among 8 children, let us assume that everyone except Cindy got equal share. So on being divided equally, it becomes, cookies per children.
But, as mentioned that Cindy received 'c' cookies less, so let us suppose Cindy received 'x' cookies.
Expression becomes:
Hence, Cindy received 12-c cookies.
