Question
The picture shows a fountain in the southern French town of Agde. From the water surface on the fountain's foundation, several water jets spray onto a plateau. Each water jet has the same shape as the graph of a second-row function. The figure shows some measurements for a water jet from the starting point S to the impact site N. The high point of the water jet is 30 cm in height and 50 cm laterally from the impact site N and 130 cm laterally from the starting point S.

Determine the highest height the water jet reaches from the starting point S, that is, the distance h in the figure.
