The brakes of an automobile can decelerate it at -4.7m/s^2. If the automobile is traveling at the rate of 31.0m/s How far will it travel after the brakes are applied before it stops?

Please help!!!

Answer:

204.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

a = v \ t

t = v \ a

t = 31 \ 4.7 = 6.6s

v = d \ t

d = v * t

d = 31 * 6.6

d= 204.5 meters
