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!

Here, height is given which will be the distance for a freely falling object.
The velocity will be

and the acceleration will be

In this way, the formula works.
Answer:
420000N
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of the train = 5.6 x 10⁵kg
Acceleration = 0.75m/s²
Unknown:
Resultant force = ?
Solution:
According to newton's second law, force is the product of mass and acceleration;
Force = mass x acceleration
Resultant force that acts on the train is given below;
Force = 5.6 x 10⁵kg x 0.75m/s² = 420000N
Density <em>ρ</em> is mass <em>m</em> per unit volume <em>v</em>, or
<em>ρ</em> = <em>m</em> / <em>v</em>
Solving for <em>v</em> gives
<em>v</em> = <em>m</em> / <em>ρ</em>
So the given object has a volume of
<em>v</em> = (130 g) / (65 g/cm³) = 2 cm³
I'm not good with math but I think it is 23.4
