Object 1 starts at 5.4 m and moves with a velocity of 1.1 m/s . object 2 starts at 8.1 m and moves with a velocity of –2.1 m/s . the two objects are moving directly toward one another. what is the position of the objects when they collide?

because it says use -2,0,and 2 for x, we can plug those numbers into the equation. y/4=3/4(-2)+2   y/4= -1 1/2 +2 now to get x by itself, we can multiply each side by 4. y=-6+8 which equals y=2 when x=-2. now you can do the same thing with 0 and 2 as x. you get y=8 when x=0 and y=14 when x=2.

x   |   y

-2 |   2

0   |   8

2   |   14
