Free Answer 2. Version B A new green TriMet bus running the #2 bus line in Portland, Oregon pulls out from a bus-stop accelerating at a constant rate from rest for 12 seconds at ₁ in the positive x direction. Once it reaches cruising speed after accelerating from rest, the green bus continues down the straight road at constant velocity for 25 seconds. To stop at the next bus-stop, the driver then slows the bus down at a constant rate of acceleration à2 coming to a stop shortly afterwards. We want to determine the total distance traveled by the green bus and the average speed of the bus if we know a₁ and a2.
