First of all, you need to attach images for this one. Second of all, graph it in desmos and compare. Thirdly, whichever looks like this.
Answer:
The value of the maximum distance the spring will be compressed
x = 0.143 m= 14.3 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data
Mass m = 1.5 kg
h = 0.9 m
k = 1500
Since the book is released from a height h = 0.9 m above the top of the spring. so the total distance
y = h + x
Now in that case for the spring


By rearranging the above equation we get

Put all the values in above equation we get

By solving the above equation we get
x = 0.143 m= 14.3 cm
This is the value of the maximum distance the spring will be compressed.
The answer is -4 hope that helps :)
The price of the row boat with the additional 6% would be $843.76
You would multiply 160 by 32 and get an answer of 5120 centimeters cubed.
