Answer:

7/8 of a gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

First find a common denominator for each of the values, in this case eighths. Next, add the total water used for the tomatoes and peppers (you'll get 7/8 gallons). Then, convert the 2 and a half gallons to eighths, getting 20/8 of a gallon. Next, subtract the 7/8 from the 20/8; getting 13/8. Since you need to find the amount of water used for the lettuce, subtract the last value from 3/4 gallons (or 6/8)

Jamie kicked a soccer ball that traveled along a path described by the parabola y = -x^2 +8x, where y equals the height of the s
andrey2020 [161]
We have that
<span>y = -x</span>²<span>+8x

we know that
when the ball hint the ground is the x-intercepts of the graph
the x-intercepts is for y=0
so
0=-x</span>²+8x--------> x²-8x=0----> x*(x-8)=0

the solution is
x=0
x=8

the x intercepts are the points (0,0) and (8,0)
the distance between the x intercepts points =[8-0]-----> 8 ft

the answer is
8 ft

see the attached figure
