Answer:
2.98 m/s^2
Explanation:
I have done this before and it was a question on my physics test
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!

A joule is one Newton of force applied over a meter.
For every meter, the brakes put 240000N of force (N=Newtons).
For 40m, multiply the Newtons by 40.
240000N*40=9600000N
