x. A stoplight 20 m to the west turns yellow. Your car is traveling west at 12 m/s. You hit the brakes and decelerate at a rate of 6.0 m/s 2 . Your car stops before it reaches the stoplight (which is considered to be at the origin). A student in a physics class made a picture of this.

Susy sees the mathematical representation below in her physics book. Which description best represents this situation? • This is a car that is moving to the right and is accelerating in the same direction. • A ball was thrown upwards in the air at a speed of 20 m/s. • A ball was thrown downwards at a height of 5 m at a speed of 20 m/s.
