Dear Kimberly,

Just for fun I went to http://google.com and I typed in "parabolas in real
life" and here are some of the sites that I found:

Ask Dr. Math: Applications of Parabolas
http://mathforum.org/dr.math/problems/lau.10.24.00.html

Exploring Real-Life Quadratic Behavior
http://www6.ewebcity.com/creativemath/Exploring_Quadratic_Behavior.html
(If you read through this lesson you will see some examples.)

Parabolas in Life
http://edservices.aea7.k12.ia.us/edtech/teacherpages/jmbrown/

If you would like more information, try going to Google and seeing what
happens when you type in that phrase.

I hope this is helpful.
