Answer:

About 384.3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for that is given by,

S= \sqrt{30 \times d \times f \times n}

Where,

S is the speed of the car

d is the distance of skid

f is the drag factor for the road surface

n is breaking efficiency as percentage

Putting the values we get,

S^2=  30 \times d \times f \times n

d= \frac{S^2}{30 \times f \times n}

d = \frac{70^2}{30 \times 0.50 \times 0.85} = 384.3 feet

So the length of skid marks would be 384.3 feet.

I tryed my best to figure out what all of the numbers were. if i got any wrong then please tell me and i will put the right answer in the comments.

1) 3/5= 5/x   (cross multiply)
     3x=5(5)
     3x=25
       x= 25/3 -or- 8.33

2) 2/4=x/12<span>   (cross multiply</span><span>)
</span> 2(12)=4x
     24=4x
       6=x
3) 10/x=5/9<span>   (cross multiply</span><span>)
   10(9)=5x
       90=5x
       18=x
4) 5/5=x/18</span><span>   (cross multiply</span><span>)
 5(18)=18x
     90=18x
       5=x</span>
