		Could someone tell me why '1/2 * 5 * 3^2 - 117.5 + 50 = 45?' returned -45? Thanks. I can't see the error. 
 
(1/2) * A * T^2 + V * T + P = D 
 
A = 5 
T = 3 
P = 50 
V = 15 
D = 117.5 
 
(1/2) * A * T^2 + V * T - D = P 
(1/2) * 5 * 3^2 + 15 * 3 - 117.5 = 50? 
2.5 * 9 + 45 - 117.5 = 50? 
22.5 + 45 - 117.5 = 50? // Don't think so... 
-50 != 50 
 
Um...Where, exactly, did I make a mistake?
