The stopping distance of a car is the number of feet that the car travels after the driver starts applying the brakes. The stopping distance of a certain car is directly proportional to the square of the speed of the car, in miles per hour, at the time the brakes are first applied. If the car’s stopping distance for an initial speed ofmiles per hour is
feet, what is its stopping distance for an initial speed of
miles per hour?
(A)feet
(B)feet
(C)feet
(D)feet
(E)feet
The correct answer is D
Explanation
The stopping distance is directly proportional to the square of the initial speed of the car. Ifrepresents the initial speed of the car, in miles per hour, and
represents the stopping distance, you have that the stopping distance is a function of
and that
, where
is a constant. Since the car’s stopping distance is
feet for an initial speed of
miles per hour, you know that
. Therefore,
, and the car's stopping distance for an initial speed of
miles per hour is
feet.
