Question 769511: can someone help me please solve this quadratic formula
You are driving along the highway when suddenly a large box falls off of a truck in front of you and dumps metal parts all over the roadway. You hit the brakes and decelerate as fast as you can. The distance D in feet that your car travels before you stop is related to your initial speed S by an equation like D = S^2 / 9. Find the initial speed S that corresponds to a stopping distance of 200 feet.
