    A hauling company needs to determine if a large house trailer, 9 meters wide and 3.2 meters tall, can pass under a highway bridge. The bridge opening is shaped like a parabolic curve that is 12 meters wide at its base and 6 meters tall in the center. To fit, the trailer must be narrower than the bridge's 12 meter width at the base and shorter than the 6 meter central height.

    large house trailer can be moved along a highway 
    that passes under a bridge with an opening in the 
    shape of a parabolic curve, 12 m wide at the base 
    and 6 m high in the center.  If the trailer is 9 m 
    wide and 3.2 m tall, will it fit under the bridge?
