Answer:

Weight of <u>12 ounces</u> will stretch spring of 15 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The amount a spring stretches varies directly as the weight of the object attracted to it.

An 8 ounce weight stretches a spring 10 centimeters.

Now, to get how much weight will stretch it is 15 centimeters.

According to question:

<em>A spring of 10 centimeters stretches a weight of 8 ounce.</em>

<em>Then a spring of 1 centimeter stretches a weight of = \frac{8}{10}=0.8\ ounce.</em>

<em>So, a spring of 15 centimetres stretches a weight of = 0.8\times 15=12\ ounces.</em>

Therefore, weight of 12 ounces will stretch spring of 15 centimeters.

What is y – 3 = 7 (x – 5) in standard form?
yuradex [85]

Answer:

38=7x-y

Step-by-step explanation:

standard form= Ax+By+C

(y-3=7(x-5))

(y-3=7x-35)+3 to both sides

(y=7x-38) +38 to both sides

(y+38=7x) -y to both sides

38=7x-y

you have to move the 38 and y because if you moved the x value, than A becomes negative and it can't be in standard form
