Coal plants use a boiler to produce steam.
Plug in the corresponding values into y = mx + b
8.18 in for y
1.31 in for m
17.2 in for b
8.18 = 1.31x + 17.2
Now bring 17.2 to the left side by subtracting 17.2 to both sides (what you do on one side you must do to the other). Since 17.2 is being added on the right side, subtraction (the opposite of addition) will cancel it out (make it zero) from the right side and bring it over to the left side.
8.18 - 17.2 = 1.31x
-9.02 = 1.31x
Then divide 1.31 to both sides to isolate x. Since 1.31 is being multiplied by x, division (the opposite of multiplication) will cancel 1.31 out (in this case it will make 1.31 one) from the right side and bring it over to the left side.
-9.02/1.31 = 1.31x/1.31
x ≈ -6.8855
x is roughly -6.89
Hope this helped!

I believe the answer is C
Answer:
4 m/s
Explanation:
m1 = m2 = m
u1 = 20 m/s, u2 = - 12 m/s
Let the speed of composite body is v after the collision.
Use the conservation of momentum
Momentum before collision = momentum after collision
m1 x u1 + m2 x u2 = (m1 + m2) x v
m x 20 - m x 12 = (m + m) x v
20 - 12 = 2 v
8 = 2 v
v = 4 m/s
Thus, the speed of teh composite body is 4 m/s.
