Question
A car slows down uniformly from a speed of 29.0 m/s to rest in 8.00s. How far does it travel in that time.

I know that the equation is X = X0 + V0(t) + .5(at^2)
I cant remeber where to put what numbers though.
Thanks for the help!

uniform acceleration means that the average speed is
... (initial + final) / 2 ... (29.0 + 0.0) / 2
distance is ... (average speed) * (time)
