You need to calculate the two zeros of the function. The first zero is the "start", the second zero is the "end" of the trajectory.

Well...

0 = x(-16x+80)

First zero is x=0 (the start of trajectory)

Second zero:

-16x+80=0.... x=5! (The end of the trajectory!)

Good luck!

drek231 [11]
Depth is the same thing as height for a pool.  Volume is l*w*h.
The total amount of water a pool can hold is the volume.
so take the total volume (1408) and divide it by 22 and 4.
1408/4/22=16
The width is 16 ft.
