Answer: The driver went over the speed limit.

==================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

The table shows f = 0.8 for dry concrete road.

The skid mark is d = 90 feet long

Plug these values into the formula below. Use your calculator to simplify.

s = sqrt(30*f*d)

s = sqrt(30*0.8*90)

s = 46.4758

The car's speed was roughly 46.4758 mph

The car is over the 35 mph speed limit.
