If a marble is dropped from a height of x feet, it will hit the ground with velocity v(x) = √x miles per hour (neglecting 60 11 air resistance). Use this formula to find the velocity with which a marble will strike the ground if it is dropped from the top of a 1419-foot tall building. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.) 207.77 x mph
