Stopping Distance (ft) 27 44 63 85 109 136 164 196
b. Use your eq u a tio n to p red ict th e stopping distance at 90 m i/h.
c. R easo ning The actual stopping distance at 90 m i/h is close to 584 ft. Why do you
th in k this distance is n o t close to your prediction?
d. Suppose you plot (90, 584) on your scatter plot. W hat effect w ould it have on the
slope an d y-intercept of the line of best fit you found in p a rt (a)?
