- The given graph shows stopping distances for trucks at various speeds on dry roads and on wet roads. Use this information to solve, a. Use the statistical menu of your graphing utility and the quadratic regression program to obtain the quadratic function that models a truck’s stopping distance, f(x), in feet, on wet pavement traveling at x miles per hour. Round the x-coefficient and the constant term to one decimal place. b.

- Electric power is defined by the equation P= VI, where P stands for power, V stands for voltage, and I stands for current. Using Ohm's law, V = IR, we can substitute this for voltage in the original equation for power to write the equation for electric power in terms of current: P =I°R. What is the equation for current in terms of power? (Solve for I) VP I = R O A.
