Identifying Blueprint Coordinates
A machinist is reviewing a blueprint for a curved track modeled by the parabolic equation . To accurately plot the track's reference markers, the machinist must recall the specific intercepts calculated during the design phase. Based on the graphing procedure for this equation, what are the exact coordinates of the -intercept, and what is its corresponding symmetric point across the axis of symmetry?
