A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form or
Let
x -----> the amount of weight
y ----- the amount a spring will stretch
we know that
For x=80 lb, y=2.1 in
<em>Find the value of k (constant of proportionality)</em>
substitute the values
The linear equation is
How far will it stretch when 40 pounds is attached?
For x=40 lb
substitute the value of x in the linear equation and solve for y
