Physics

A boy shoves his stuffed toy zebra, which has mass m, down africtionless chute, starting at a height D above the bottom of thechute and with an initial speed of v. The toy animal emergeshorizontally from the bottom of the chute and continues slidingalong a horizontal surface with coefficient of kinetic friction μ.At what distance d from the bottom of the chute does the toy zebracome to rest? Express your answer in terms of the given variablesand g, the acceleration due to gravity.

I thought the answer was (0.5v^2+gh)/(mu x g) but it is notcorrect apparently
