Problem 9D. 
Forensic researchers at a vehicle safety research center were interested in empirically studying
the stopping distance required for vehicles. Two main contributors to stopping distance are: (i)
speed of the vehicle and (ii) road condition (e.g., dry asphalt, wet asphalt, dry concrete, wet
concrete, snow, ice). The contributors were controlled at a speed of 75 mph and a dry asphalt
road condition. Assume the “imperial” units of measure, which require speed in mph and
stopping distance in feet. The following are observations of stopping distance under the above
condition for seven vehicles.
261    275    242    251    254    249    268
