The Research and Development Department of an Automobile Manufacturer Has R(x)=52xR ( x ) = \frac { 5 } { 2 } x

Question 38

Multiple Choice

The research and development department of an automobile manufacturer has determined that when a driver is required to stop quickly to avoid an accident,the distance (in feet) the car travels during the driver's reaction time is given by R(x) =52xR ( x ) = \frac { 5 } { 2 } x ,where x is the speed of the car in miles per hour.The distance (in feet) traveled while the driver is braking is given by B(x) =111x2B ( x ) = \frac { 1 } { 11 } x ^ { 2 } .Find the function that represents the total stopping distance T. ​


A) T=52x+111x2T = - \frac { 5 } { 2 } x + \frac { 1 } { 11 } x ^ { 2 }
B) T=52x111x2T = \frac { 5 } { 2 } x - \frac { 1 } { 11 } x ^ { 2 }
C) T=52x2+111x2T = \frac { 5 } { 2 } x ^ { 2 } + \frac { 1 } { 11 } x ^ { 2 }
D) T=52x111x2T = - \frac { 5 } { 2 } x - \frac { 1 } { 11 } x ^ { 2 }
E) T=52x+111x2T = \frac { 5 } { 2 } x + \frac { 1 } { 11 } x ^ { 2 }
