the graph's maximum is at 33 mpg for reference −0.015(x−55)2+15so just plug it inlet's set y to 0

y=−0.015(x−55)2+15 0=−0.015(x−55)2+15 subtract 15 −15=−0.015(x−55)2 divide both sides by -0.015 1000=(x−55)2
the other maximum is at x=55
and we want the y value
at x=55, y=-0.015(55-55)^2+15 y=-0.015(0)+15 y=15
 the compact has a max of 33mpg and the SUV 15mpg

so you would subtract the 33 and the 15
