Answer: the spring would be stretched by 38 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The length that a hanging spring stretches varies directly with the weight placed at the end of the spring. Let L represent the length of the spring and let w represent the weight placed at the end of the spring. Introducing a constant of variation, k, the expression would be

L = kW

If a weight of 15lb stretches a certain spring 19in, the expression would be

19 = 15k

k = 19/15

The equation would be

L = 19w/15

if the weight is increased to 30lb, then the length by which the spring would be stretched is

L = 19 × 30/15

L = 38 inches

Answer:

Angle A = 30.8

Angle B = 33.2

Step-by-step explanation:

180 - 116 = 64  

This means that the other two angles need to add up to 64.

I just plugged in numbers until it worked.

I got that x = 14.6

2x + 4

2(14.6) + 4

29.2 + 4

33.2

3x - 13

3(14.6) - 13

43.8 - 13

30.8

Those are your angles. To make sure they are correct you just need to add up all the angles and make sure that they equal to 180.

116 + 33.2 + 30.8 =

180

The possibility of landing on yellow would be 8/72 times because 1/9=x/72.
9 times 8 is 72 so 8 times 1 is 8/72. 1/9 is from the 1+7+1=9. 1/9.
The answer is 8/72 or 1/9.
