The estimated velocity v (in miles per hour) of a car at the end of a drag race is v=234 3√p/w (cube root) , 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 :

given that v=234 3√p/w (cube root)
where 
 
p is the horsepower of the car and
w is the weight (in pounds) of the car
v is the velocity in miles per hour

p = 1311 hp
w = 2744 lb
substitute the given value to the equation to solve for the velocity

v = 234 
3√(1311 / 2744)
v = 183 miles per hour is the velocity of a car at the end of a drag race.
