Answer:
6359
Step-by-step explanation:
add
4(x-3)=11x perform indicated multiplication on left side...
4x-4*3=11x
4x-12=11x subtract 11x from both sides
-7x-12=0 add 12 to both sides
-7x=12 divide both sides by -7
x=-12/7 or if you prefer
x=-1 5/7
The answer is 15 feet 7 inches :)
With the information given, we deduce that the parabola is

Reflecting a function over the x axis means to change its sign. After the reflection, the parabola becomes

And to shift down a function, you subtract the shift from the equation: the equation becomes

Similarly, the other function is reflected over the x axis (sign change) and shifted up 3 (add 3 to the equation):

In order to compute the y intercept, we simply have to evaluate the functions at x=0: for the parabola we have

For the other function, we have

For this case we have the following polynomial:

To solve the problem we apply the following steps:
1) We make a change of variables u = x ^ 2
2) We rewrite the polynomial
3) Solve the quadratic equation using the formula for the quadratic equation
4) We return the change and find four roots
