Question 1167706: Police sometimes use the formula
s = k
ℓ
to estimate the speed s (in mph) of a car involved in an accident. In this formula, ℓ is the length of the skid in feet, and k is a constant depending on the condition of the pavement. For wet pavement, k ≈ 3.24. How fast was a car going if its skid was 400 feet on wet pavement?
s =
mph HOW DO I WRITE THE FORMULA?
