This study explores the characteristics of parabolas in the context of water trajectories, utilizing quadratic regression to analyze the data. The quadratic equation derived is y = -0.212919171x² + 0.10976664x + 9.050969533, with a vertex at (-0.011695711, 9.049657736) and x-intercepts at (7, 0) and (6.5, 0). The domain is all real numbers, and the range extends to infinity. Visuals and a detailed bibliography, including a relevant image from Wikimedia, support the findings and enhance understanding of this phenomenon.
