On a frictionless horizontal floor, two objects collide.

On a frictionless horizontal floor, two objects collide. Object A, which is moving in a velocity of 72 m/s, is 7 times of object B, which has a velocity of 40 m/s. Object A moves to the right while object B moves to the left. What is the velocity of the resulting combined mass? Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
