Police can estimate the speed of a vehicle before the brakes are applied using the formula 0.75 d equals Start Fraction s squared over 30.25 End Fraction, where s is the speed in miles per hour and d is the length of the vehicle’s skid marks. What was the approximate speed of a vehicle that left skid marks measuring 150 feet?
