this helped so much. poor squirrel tho.

[@ryanpenkusky5644]

Holy shit, what a morbid question. That poor squirrel never had a chance.

[@constancemote3718]

poor squirrel. Anyway, these types of problems are maddening and for some reason I cannot grasp this concept..

[@DeeSwitz]

+Constance Mote i agree, i keep getting the conversions mixed up

[@constancemote3718]

same here

[@error9106]

I can understand the concept I just have trouble applying it to other problems as they are usually drastically different.

[@taegrr_yt]

Hate to point out potential flaws in this problem. The general math is dead on. However, consider the following: It figures that the road is a single lane road since it's only 9 feet across. The car and the squirrel are trying to get past a certain point. The squirrel has .75 seconds, the car has .5 seconds. The car will arrive at the point first, traveling 100 feet per second, the car will continue another 25 feet by the time the squirrel gets to that exact same point. Unless the car is unusually long, the squirrel will, in fact, make it across the road just fine by going behind the car.

OMGoodness, I like this! lol

That was really helpful, poor squirrel.

But what if the squirrel was on the road but not by the car

[@selenegutierrez1671]

this is where i became the weakest, the foolest and the most stupid student in class. when it comes to ANALYZING PROBLEM. even though ur explanations are clear. i still cant understand even if i try so hard :'((((((

[@k1ckz16]

these are the helpest school ever

[@MIDBALLERSTATUS]

RIP Squirrel

[@vinewoodx]

That poor squirrel, man. )':

[@blockmakerbryce3618]

i did the math the squirrel would not be able to cross the rode but the car is moving fast engough that the squirrel bieng shorter than normal becasue the crawl while running would fit underneath the car as it went over it wissing the tires by aboout a foot so the squirell would be scared but fine

[@ZaBaoi]

@@blockmakerbryce3618 lol true I take it back about me crying

[@Oxcilic]

I'm sorry mr squirrel but maths is maths :.(

[@yalstudy-life]

thank you so much sir :)

[@eduardorabassallo3717]

damm sal, why couldn't you let the squirrel live

[@nerizaknoeferl4415]

this is hepful

[@cameronpywell835]

This doesn't help with the khan academy lesson it was paired with, like at all.

[@rashane4328]

same

[@Pegasusmustfly]

Is this a one-lane road? The results in real life seem to depend upon which lane the car is driving in and which side of the road the squirrel starts to cross from! It might be that the squirrel could make it across if the squirrel started on the SAME side of the road as the lane where the car is driving. Maybe by some miracle the squirrel could dodge that drivers-side tire! Any thoughts?

[@carzyscenctist]

Answer this question for me, please, is a head scratcher: 1.0 cubic centimetre (cm^3) of a solution contains 0.010g of salt. What is the mass of salt contained in 1 cubic decimetre (dm^3) of the same solution? Textbook says 10g but I disagree, my answer is 0.1g Which answer is correct and Why??? Cheers

[@WhatAboutBill]

Anyone have the squirrel's obituary? I gotta show it to my math teacher

[@gswolf8386]

Also poor squirrel

[@Reggie8092]

the squirrel doesn't die

[@ZaBaoi]

stupid driver lol he did not see the freakin squirrel

[@ZaBaoi]

Me:😢😭😭😭😭😭😭

[@christophermaschio3627]

this is so sad...

[@lanahgesler8482]

i'm not worded about the squirrel is the math i dont get it dose not mach what i'm learning (oh and dont be afened)
