The net productivity of a forested wetland as related to the amount of water moving
through the wetland can be expressed by a quadratic equation. In exercises 65 to 68, if y
represents the amount of wood produced, in grams per square meter, and x represents the
amount of water present, in centimeters, determine where the productivity is zero in each
wetland represented by the equations.
