An engineering team is analyzing a simple bridge suspension cable. The cable shape is modeled by y(x)=0.01x2+5y(x) = 0.01x^2 + 5y(x)=0.01x2+5, where yyy is the height above the road bed (in meters) and xxx is the horizontal distance from the center (in meters). What is the slope of the cable at a distance of 202020 meters from the center?
