An alligator swims to the left with a constant velocity of 5 \,\dfrac{\text{m}}{\text s}5 s m 5, space, start fraction, m, divided by, s, end fraction. When the alligator sees a bird straight ahead, the alligator speeds up with a constant acceleration of 3 \,\dfrac{\text {m}}{\text s^2}3 s 2 m 3, space, start fraction, m, divided by, s, start superscript, 2, end superscript, end fraction leftward until it reaches a final velocity of 35 \,\dfrac{\text {m}}{\text s}35 s m 35, space, start fraction, m, divided by, s, end fraction leftward.
