Y=mx+b if y=8.18 m=1.31 b=17.2 then find x

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!

Answer:

x= -6.89

Explanation:

You need to substitute your values of the variables into the y=mx+b. So.......

8.18=1.31x+17.2

next, you would solve like a linear equation. so, you would subtract 17.2 from each side first, which would give you

-9.02=1.31x

then, you would divide each side by 1.31. this would give you your answer

-6.885496=x

this varies on teacher, and should be specified in the instructions which place value you are to round to. i will round this to the 2nd decimal place, so

x=-6.89

Why can we never prove that a hypothesis is true?
erma4kov [3.2K]
A theorem can be proven (from axioms or prior theorems), using logic.

A hypothesis can be supported by evidence. The more evidence in support of the hypothesis, the more likely the hypothesis is to be correct. However, you’re always at the mercy of contrary evidence appearing in the future, to reduce the likelihood or even invalidate a hypothesis.

A (mathematical) proof suffers no such vulnerability to future evidence, as long as you hold the axioms of the theory to be true, and as long as there was no flaw in the construction of the proof.

driving down the highway , you find yourself behind a heavily loaded tomato truck. you follow close behind the truck keeping the
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

The tomato won't hit the car

Explanation:

According to the statement, the car moves at constant speed behind the truck fully loaded with tomatoes, and in the same direction. When a tomato falls from the top of the truck, it should not hit the car as the tomato falls due to the force of gravity, while horizontally has the same speed and in the same direction as the truck.  So we assume that the tomato will fall to the road without touching the car.

Have a nice day!
