The equation of Parabola is $y=-11/98*(x-3)^2+4$

Explanation:

The equation of Parabola with vertex at (3,4) is $y=a(x-3)^2+4$ The point (17,-18) satisfies the equation so $-18= a(17-3)^2+4 or -18 = 196*a+4 or a=-22/196 ora =-11/98$ So the equation of the parabola is $y=-11/98*(x-3)^2+4$ graph{-11/98 (x-3)^2+4 [-40, 40, -20, 20]}
