the stopping distance of an automobile is directly proportional to the square of its speed v. a car required 90 feet to stop whe

n its speed was 70 miles per hour. find a mathematical model that gives the stopping distance d in terms of its speed v. Estimate the stopping distance if the brakes are applied when the car is traveling at 71 miles per hour.

First we write the mathematical model in a generic way:
 "The stopping distance of an automobile is directly proportional to the square of its speed v"
 d = kv ^ 2
 Where,
 k: proportionality constant.
 We now look for the value of K:
 d = kv ^ 2
 90 = k ((70) * (5280/3600)) ^ 2
 k = 90 / ((70) * (5280/3600)) ^ 2
 k = 0.008538539 s ^ 2 / feet
 The equation will then be:
 d = (0.008538539) * v ^ 2
 For v = 71 miles per hour we have:
 d = (0.008538539) * ((71) * (5280/3600)) ^ 2
 d = 92.6 feet
 Answer:
 a mathematical model that gives the stopping distance in terms of its speed v is:
 d = (0.008538539) * v ^ 2
 The stopping distance if the brakes are applied when the car is traveling at 71 miles per hour is:
 d = 92.6 feet

*Hint: When a figure is reflective about the y-axis, the rule would be (-x, y)

So as you can see, all the points of the figure changed from a negative x to a positive one but kept the same y value. And then after the translation up by 6 units, the final rule would be (-x, y + 6) and if you were to plug in the points, you would see they would end up as the image.

The answer to this question would be:

B.) Reflection about the y-axis followed by translation up by 6 units.

Vika [28.1K]
C. not all birds fly.
When using _:_, you are contrasting two things so, you are putting a argument to go against the other side.
Not all birds can fly is going against All birds can fly.

Hope this helps. :)
