A car starts from rest and reaches a velocity of 18.0 m/s in 12.0 seconds. The car then continues traveling at a constant velocity for 20.0 seconds. At the end of the 20.0 seconds, the car uniformly decelerates at .600 m/s2 and finally comes to rest. How far did the car travel from start to finish ?
