I always thought that 'polygamy' refers to the social system in which a man
may have more than one wife, and I thought there's some other word for
where a woman is married to more than one man. 

But when I went to look it up just now to answer your question, (which by the
way you could also have done very easily), I found a definition that says it's a
"state of marriage between many spouses".  That doesn't specify genders, so
I guess it means any marriage that involves more than two people, no matter
how the genders may be represented or distributed within it.

morpeh [17]

Answer:

the motorcycle travels 42.4 meters until it stops.

Explanation:

Vi= 18 m/s

Vf= 0 m/s

t= 4.7 sec

Vf= Vi - a*t

deceleration:

a= Vi/t

a= 18m/s  / 4.7 sec =>  a=-3.82 m/s²

x= Vi*t - (a * t²)/2

x= 42.4m

nikklg [1K]
I’m not sure what variables you are given, but since work = force x distance, and force = mass x acceleration, you could use work = mass x acceleration x distance
