All I can say is that your equation is wrong
Answer:
y = - 2x + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, 11) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, - 3)
m =
=
= - 2, thus
y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (- 2, 11), then
11 = 4 + c ⇒ c = 11 - 4 = 7
y = - 2x + 7 ← equation of line
KE = 1/2mv^2
1/2(1622)(11.3)^2 = 103557 J when the car hits the tree.
But since the car came to a stop, there is no motion, no kinetic energy
DONE ! Very easy answer key
