By changing the value of the slider, we found that value of a = 4.6 satisfies the plot.
So,
y = 4.6*sqrt(x)
b.
x = 414
y = 4.6*sqrt(x) = 4.6*sqrt(414) = 93.596
c.
y = 65
Therefore
y = 4.6*sqrt(x) = 65
sqrt(x) = 65/4.6 = 14.13
x = (14.13)2 = 199.66

This Question: 1 pt Skid mark analysis is one way to estimate the speed a car was traveling prior to an accident. The speed, that the vehicle was traveling in mies per hour can be approximated by the formula 330df, where d represents the length of the skid marks in feet and represents the drag factor of the road. A vehicle that was involved in an accident on an asphalt road was traveling ata speed of 75 mph when it...
