12. A stone is dropped into a mine shaft and hits the bottom 3.5 seconds later. How deep is the
mine shaft? The equation for the distance an object falls in T seconds is T d , where d is the

13. Nascar officials use the formula s 5.5 0.7d to estimate speed, s, in miles per hour from the
distance, d, that a car takes to stop when the brakes are applied. Often, this distance is left on the
road by skid marks. If a vehicle is moving at 155 miles per hour, and the driver applies the brakes
and begins to skid, how long should the skid marks be?

14. If the solution to the equation √3𝑥 + 𝑘 = √4 − 𝑥 is -3, what is the value of k?
↳ Value of x (solution )

15. The distance d (in miles) that a pilot can see to the horizon can be modeled by d 1.22 a
where a is the plane’s altitude (in feet above sea level).

a. Write a reasonable domain 'if the altitude goes up to 20,500 feet.
