Motorcycle travel 90 mph accelerates to pass a truck five seconds later the car is going 120 mph calculate the acceleration

Explanation:

Let Vc be the velocity of the car and I'm the velocity of the motorcycle. If we convert their given values, we get:

Vc = 87 km/h * 1000m / 1km * 1h / 3600s = 24.17m/s

Vm = 95 km/h * 1000m / 1km * 1h / 3600s = 26.38m/s

Since their positions are equal after 17s we can stablish that:

Where d is the initial separation distance of 54m. Solving for a, we get:

  Repacing the values:

2222222222222222222

step-by-step explanation:

logv3(x+2)=1

rewrite in exponential form:

logb(x) = y is equal to b^y =x

b = 3, y = 1

now solve for x:

3^1 = x+2)

x = 3-2

x = 1
