Deflection of Beams Using Double integration method.

I have this problem where on a simply supported beam, the load (W) distribution is

w= ax^2 + bx + c

at the middle of the beam the load reaches maximum of 100KN/m and at the ends W=0.

I need to find the deflection in the middle and the gradient at both ends.

Any help is much appreciated thanks.

Re: Deflection of Beams Using Double integration method.

The load is downward parabola with vertex 100 kN/m above the point L/2. If L is given, the a, b , and c in w = ax^2 + bx + c can be found easily. Is the origin given at the left end or at L/2? If the x and y axis are not given, place the origin at the midpoint of the beam (at L/2), with this setup, the calculations will be easier.
