Answer:

Explanation:

Use the one-dimensional equation

[tex]v_f=v_0+at[/tex] where vf is the final velocity of the dog, v0 is the initial velocity of the dog, a is the acceleration of the dog, and t is the time it takesto reach that final velocity. For us:

0 = 2 + -.43t and

-2 = -.43t so

t = 4.7 seconds
