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

{(old number - new number)/old number} * 100

_________________________

given

no. of student  went to the first school dance = 340

no. of student  went to the last school dance = 306

Percentage of change between two dance

= ((no. of student  went to the first school dance - no. of student  went to the last school dance)/ no. of student  went to the fist school dance)*100

= (340 - 306)/340 *100

= (36/340 )*100 = 10.59%

The percent of change between the two dances 10.59%.
