Answer:

y = 4.0009
√(x)

Explanation:

The table given shows the stopping distance of the car on the speed.

We know that distance and speed are directly proportional. Hence, when the speed is more, the distance taken by the car to stop will also be more.

We will find the equation of the data given in the table through the trend line command on excel.

Let x represents the distance and y represents the speed of the car.

Hence, the equation of the data is:

y = 4.0009
√(x)
