Sorry it was the answer to the second question. Also going back and re-plugging in the numbers I got 2.22, but it's still wrong.- anotherphysicsgeek

Solved equation 1 for v1f and then substituted into equation 2 and solved for v2f. Got 2.22 as the answer, but it said the answer is incorrect.- anotherphysicsgeek
