the equation s=2√5x can be used to estimate the speed ,s,of a car in milles per hour, given the length in feet ,x, of the tire marks it leaves on the ground .A card travelling 90 miles per hour came to a sudden stop according to the equation ,how long would the tire marks be for this car A 355 feet B 380 feet C 405 feet D 430 feet

Sagot :

Answer:

405 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

s = 2 * (√5) * 90

s = 2 * 201.246117975

s = 402.49223595

Closest estimate

405 feet

Answer:

Since The equation that depicts the motion of the Car is given.

The speed in terms of the tire marks...

s= 2√5x

where x is the tire marks(in feet.)

s is the speed(miles per hr)

We can't use the speed in Miles per hr when the tire mark is feet.

1mile = 5280ft

90miles x 5280ft/1mile = 475,200ft/hr

Making x the subject

x= s/2√5

x= 475/200/(2√5 )

=106,257ft

I still can't see what I'm missing or You sure you didn't forget to add something else to the question?
