$\hbox{y-intercept: } x=0 \\
2 \times 0+3 y -9=0 \\
3y-9=0 \\
3y=9 \\
y=\frac{9}{3} \\
\boxed{y=3}$

Answer: 25v+16
Solution: Distribute the -3 to the whole equation in the parenthesis. This will make the equation 27v+12-2(v-2). Do the same thing with the -2 and the other parenthesis. This will make the equation 27v+12-2v+4. Combine like terms. This will make the equation 25v+16.

A force of 60 N is used to stretch two springs that are initially the same length. Spring A has a spring constant of 4 N/m, and

Answer:

D:Spring A is 3 m longer than spring B because 15 – 12 = 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, you should remember the Hooke's Law in physics.

The Hooke's Law simply explains that the extension that occurs on a spring is directly proportional to the load applied on it.

The mathematical expression for this law is

$F=-kx$

where;

F= force applied on the spring

x = the extension on the spring

k= the spring constant which varies in spring.

The question will need you to calculate the extension on the springs A and B then compare the values obtained.

In spring A

Force, F=60N and spring constant ,k=4 N/m

To find the extension x apply the expression;

$F=-kx\\\\60=-4*x\\\\60=-4x\\\\\frac{60}{-4} =\frac{-4x}{-4} \\\\\\-15=x$

Here the spring extension is 15 m

In spring B

Force, F=60N and spring constant , k=5N/m

To find the extension x apply the same expression

$F=-kx\\\\60=-5*x\\\\60=-5x\\\\\\\frac{60}{-5} =\frac{-5x}{-5} \\\\\\-12=x$

Here the extension on the spring is 12 m

Compare

The extension on spring A is 3 m longer than that in spring B because when you subtract the value of spring B from that in spring A you get 3m

$=15m-12m=3m$
