To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the logic presented in the video transcript. ### Step 1: Set up the equation We are given the relationship between distance (s) and time (t) as: \[ s = t^2 - 2t \] ### Step 2: Substitute the odometer reading We need to find the time (t) when the odometer reading (s) is 15 km. So we set: ...
