\n\n
A very lucky and mathematical leprachaun decided to hide his pot of gold in a location other than the known location \"at the end of the rainbow\". Also, being a believer in the Good Book, decided not to put all his eggs in one basket so to speak. So, he has buried his gold in two locations where his transformed rainbow touches the ground. The visible rainbow is defined by the function $\\simplify{ f(x)= -{a}*(x-{h})^2 + {k} }$, where the leftmost point touches the ground at his little humble cottage. If the visible rainbow is moved to the right by $\\var{hMove}$ km, and the maximum height of the rainbox is moved down by $\\var{kMove}$ km, then the ends of the rainbow will mark the location of his two buried pots of gold. What is the distance from his house to each of the pots of gold?
\n(Hint: The clever little leprachaun used Desmos graphing calculator for his calculations!)
