I am a brazen lion, a fountain; my spouts are my two eyes, my mouth, and the flat of my right foot. My right eye fills a jar in two days [1 day = 12 hours], my left eye in three, and my foot in four; my mouth is capable of filling it in six hours. Tell me how long all four together will take to fill it.

A scientist investigated the effect of cross-fertilization on the heights of plants. In one study, the scientist planted 15pairs of a species of plant. Each pair consisted of one cross-fertilized plant and one self-fertilized plant grown in the same pot. The table available below gives the height differences, in eighths of an inch, for the 15 pairs. Each difference is obtained by subtracting the height of the self-fertilized plant from that of the cross-fertilized plant.
