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

One solution to a quadratic function, h, is given.
Margaret [11]

Answer:

B. The other solution to function h is -4-i\,7.

Step-by-step explanation:

From Algebra, we remember that quadratic functions of the form a\cdot x^{2}+b\cdot x + c has solutions of the form:

x = \frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4\cdot a\cdot c}}{2\cdot a}, where both are complex if and only if \sqrt{b^{2}-4\cdot a \cdot c}< 0.

Hence, if one solution of the quadratic function is -4+i\,7, then the other solution is -4-i\,7. The correct answer is B.
