Traffic accident investigators use the formula:
\( v = \sqrt { 24 L } \)
to estimate the speed of a car, \( v \) , in miles per hour, based on the length, \( L \) , in feet, of its skid marks when suddenly braking on a flat, dry, asphalt road.
At the scene of an accident, a car's skid marks are measured to be \( 163 \) feet long. Approximately how fast was the car traveling? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
The car was traveling at approximately _____miles per hour
