At t=0 a person on a bike starts from rest at a point 14 meters to the right of the origin and accelerates at a constant rate of 2 m/s to the left. At time t=6 seconds, the person has reached a certain speed; they stop accelerating, and continue traveling with that same speed until t=8 seconds. What is the persons position relative to the origin at t=8 seconds considering to the right as the positive direction? Enter you answer in units of meters rounding only your final answer to two decimal places. If the position of the person is to the left of the origin, your answer must be entered with a minus sign.
