Answer:

1.05\ in

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x=k or y=kx

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>

k=y/x

substitute the values

k=2.1/80

The linear equation is

y=(2.1/80)x

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

y=(2.1/80)(40)=1.05\ in
