Two remote control cars are completing a 25-meter race. car a drives at 0.5 m/s the whole time. car b starts at rest and accelerates to a top speed of 1 m/s over 40 seconds, and then finishes the race at that speed. which car wins the race? by how many seconds?

it could 14.28 but if its not that one then it has to be the 17 one. hope this ! : )

step-by-step explanation:

17   x 256=4352

sorry if this is wrong, i'm new.

step-by-step explanation:

d, x=8

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.

(-5,-28)

i graphed to on desmos.
