Emily is in the process of building her own house and she is keen for her front door to be as large
and impressive as possible.
Emily managed to source a large piece of timber with a 'cross-sectional area' in the shape of a
parabola, with one perfectly flat edge. When stood up on the flat edge, Emily determined (through
some clever and mysterious methods) that the curved edge of the timber could be mapped using the
function:

Where 'w' represents the 'width' (measured from the bottom left corner) and 'h' represents the
height of the timber in metres.
