First of all, I'm going to assume that we have a concave down parabola, because the stream of water is subjected to gravity.
If we need the vertex to be at
, the equation will contain a
term.
If we start with
we have a parabola, concave down, with vertex at
and a maximum of 0.
So, if we add 7, we will translate the function vertically up 7 units, so that the new maximum will be 
We have

Now we only have to fix the fact that this parabola doesn't land at
, because our parabola is too "narrow". We can work on that by multiplying the squared parenthesis by a certain coefficient: we want

such that:
Plugging these values gets us

As you can see in the attached figure, the parabola we get satisfies all the requests.
Answer:
y = 17.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that y is directly proportional to x then the equation relating them is
y = kx ← k is the constant of proportion
To find k use the condition y = 35 when x = 140, then
35 = 140k ( divide both sides by 140 )
0.25 = k
y = 0.25x ← equation of proportion
When x = 70, then
y = 0.25 × 70 = 17.5
5/10 in the lowest fraction is 1/5
The decimal form is 0.5 if you need it
You should use the website Math wa* it helps you will a lot with math only but if you have to pay to see how the computer shows it work and steps to the answer but the answer is free just put the question and you get the answer. It is never wrong I've been using it for 4 years.
*=y so, the * is y at the end of the word
