|x-8| = 16
⇒ x-8= 16 or x-8= -16
⇒ x= 16+ 8 or x= -16+ 8
⇒ x= 24 or x= -8

Final answer: x= 24 or x= -8~

Answer:

1. The car is slowing down at a rate of 2.5mph/s

2. The greatest acceleration is 10 mph/s.

3. In the interval 4s to 16s the speed remains constant and has magnitude 25 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The deceleration of the car is from 16 seconds to 24 seconds is the slope $m$ of the graph from 16 to 24:

$m=\dfrac{\Delta speed }{\Delta time } = \dfrac{5-25}{24-16} =-2.5mph/s$

the negative sign indicates that it is deceleration.

2. The automobile experiences the greatest change in speed when the slope is greatest because that is when acceleration/deceleration is greatest.

From the graph we see that the greatest slope of the graph is between 28 and 24 seconds. The acceleration the interval is the slope $m$ :

$m= \dfrac{45-5}{28-24}= 10mph/s$

3. The automobile experiences no acceleration in the interval 4 s to 16 s—that's the graph is flat.

The speed of the automobile in that interval, as we see from the graph, is 25 mph.
