Maura is deciding which hose to use to water her outdoor plants. Maura notices that the water coming out of her garden hoses follows a parabolic path.
When Maura uses her green garden hose the greatest height the water reaches
is 8 feet, and it lands on the plants 10 feet from where she is standing. Both the nozzle of
the hose and the top of the flowers are 4 feet above the ground
