A man wants to take his boat to a section of river he hasn't seen but there is a bridge he must pass under. Help determine if the boat can make it or needs to turn around. He knows it's a parabolic arch (see pics below, not to scale) and says "Maximum Height: 10 Feet" on the sign above and the width of the river is 16 feet in that part. His boat is 12 feet wide and the deck sits 4 feet above the surface of the water.

Kindly answer and show full solution.
