Answer:

  L = s^2/(30.25Cd)

Step-by-step explanation:

In accident investigation, the speed of a vehicle can be estimated using a polynomial function that relates speed (s) to the length of skid marks (L). The drag coefficient Cd will depend on the condition of the road surface and tires, but might be expected to be between 0.7 and 0.8.

If the skid marks end in a collision, the length of the marks that might have been made can be estimated using this formula, then that length added to the actual length of marks to estimate the original speed. The speed at the point of collision can be estimated by the damage caused, and/or the movement created.

In the above formula, length is in feet, and speed is in miles per hour.

The solutions to the systems of equations are:

1. (2, 3) (see attachment below). [one solution]

2. no solution

3. (3, 13) [one solution]

<h3>Solution to a System of Equations?</h3>

The solution to a system of equations is the x-value and y-value that will make both equations true. It can be found either using a graph, by elimination method, or substitution method as explained below.

1. Using graph to solve y = 2x - 1 and y = 4x - 5:

The solution is the point where both lines intersect which is: (2, 3) (see attachment below). [one solution]

2. Solving using substitution method:

x = -5y + 4 ---> eqn. 1

3x + 15y = -1 ---> eqn. 2

Substitute x = -5y + 4 into eqn. 2

3(-5y + 4) + 15y = -1

-15y + 12 + 15y = -1

-15y + 15y = -1 - 12

0 = -13 (this shows that there is no solution)

3. Using elimination method:

14x = 2y + 16 ---> eqn. 1

5x = y + 2 ---> eqn. 2

1(14x = 2y + 16)

2(5x = y + 2)

14x = 2y + 16 ----> eqn. 3

10x = 2y + 4 -----> eqn. 4

Subtract

4x = 12

x = 12/4

x = 3

Substitute x = 3 into eqn. 2

5(3) = y + 2

15 = y + 2

15 - 2 = y

13 = y

y = 13

The solution is: (3, 13).

If y=3x and 2x−4y=3 , then x=
tatiyna

Answer:

x = -3/10

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x by substituting y = 3x into the other equation:

2x - 4y = 3

2x - 4(3x) = 3

Simplify and solve for x:

2x - 12x = 3

-10x = 3

x = -3/10

So, x = -3/10
