Answer: $\sqrt{145}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1. use the distance formula!

$distance = \sqrt{(x_{2} - x_{1})^{2} +{(y_{2} - y_{1})}^2$

2. then using the distance formula with (2, 7) and (-6, -2) you get...

$distance= \sqrt{2 -(-6)^2 +(7 - (-2)^2}$

$distance= \sqrt{8^2 +9^2}$

$distance= \sqrt{64 +81}$

$distance= \sqrt{145}$

$\sqrt{145}$ is the simplest radical form

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.
