Step-by-step explanation:
The approximate stopping distance d(in feet) is given by the formula :
...(1)
Where
v is the speed of the car in mph
We need to find the speed of the car when the distance is 200 feet
Put d = 200 in equation (1)
It is a quadratic equation. Divide the above equation by 0.05.
The solution of the above equation is given by :
Since, 1 mph = 5280 ft/hour
44.96 ft/h = 0.00851 mph
-88.96 = -0.0168 mph
Hence, this is the required siolution.
