The estimated velocity v (in miles per hour) of a car at the end of a drag race is v=234\sqrt[3]{p/w} , where p is the horsepower of the car and w is the weight (in pounds) of the car. A car has a horsepower of 1311 and weighs 2744 pounds. Find the velocity of the car at the end of a drag race. Round your answer to the nearest whole number

Respuesta :

Answer:

299 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]v=\frac{234}{\sqrt[3]{\frac{p}{w}}}[/tex]

[tex]v=\frac{234}{\sqrt[3]{\frac{1311}{2744}}}[/tex]

[tex]v\approx299[/tex]

Therefore, the velocity of the car at the end of a drag race is 299 miles per hour
