Answer:

Work done in stretching the spring = 7.56 lb-ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal length of the spring = 8 in or \frac{8}{12} ft

= \frac{2}{3} ft

If the spring has been stretched to 11 inch then the stretched length of the spring is = 11 in

= \frac{11}{12} ft

Force applied to stretch the spring = 12 lb

By Hook's law,

F = kx [where k is the spring constant and x = length by which the spring is stretched]

12 = k(\frac{2}{3})

k = 18

Work done (W) to stretch the spring by \frac{11}{12} ft will be

W = \int\limits^\frac{11}{12} _0 {kx} \, dx

    = \int\limits^\frac{11}{12} _0 {(18x)} \, dx

    = 18[\frac{x^{2}}{2}]^{\frac{11}{12}}_0

    = 9(\frac{11}{12})²

    = 7.56 lb-ft

Answer:

112 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Length (l) = 7 ft

→ Breadth (b) = 4 ft

→ Height (h) = 4 ft

Formula we use,

→ l × b × h

The volume of cuboid will be,

→ l × b × h

→ 7 × 4 × 4

→ [ 112 ft³ ]

Hence, the volume is 112 ft³.

This is a factorial sequence that can be modeled by An = n!. As you may see, the increasing numbers are factorials of 1,2,3,4, and 5. Factorial means multiplying backwards and is represented by !. For example, 1! is 1*1 =1. 2! is 2*1, 3! is 3*2*1, 4! is 4*3*2*1 etc.

15.        3x - 2y = -2
      3x - 3x - 2y = -3x - 2
                   -2y = -3x - 2
                    -2         -2
                       y = 1.5x + 1

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
 y - 3 = ⁻²/₃(x - (-2))
 y - 3 = ⁻²/₃(x + 2)
 y - 3 = ²/₃(x) - ²/₃(2)
 y - 3 = ⁻²/₃x - 1¹/₃
   + 3            + 3
       y = ⁻²/₃x + 1²/₃
