Answer:

18 J is the work required to stretch a spring from 7 m to 13 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

The work done is defined to be the product of the force F and the distance d  that the object moves:

W=Fd

If F is measured in newtons and d<em> </em>in meters, then the unit for is a newton-meter, which is called a joule (J).

This definition work as long as the force is constant, but if the force is variable like in this case, we have that the work done is given by

W=\int\limits^b_a {f(x)} \, dx

Hooke’s Law states that the force required to maintain a spring stretched x    units beyond its natural length is proportional to

f(x)=kx

where k is a positive constant (called the spring constant).

To find how much work W is required to stretch it from 7 m to 13 m you must:

Step 1: Find the spring constant

We know that the spring has a natural length of 7 m and a 4 N force is required to keep it stretched to a length of 11 m. So, applying Hooke’s Law

4=k(11-7)\\\\\frac{k\left(11-7\right)}{4}=\frac{4}{4}\\\\k=1

Thus F=x

Step 2: Find the the work done in stretching the spring from 7 m to 13 m.

Recall that the natural length is 7 m, so when we stretch the spring from 7 m to 13 m, we are stretching it by 6 m beyond its natural length.

Work needed to stretch it by 6 m beyond its natural length

W=\int\limits^6_0 {x} \, dx \\\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:Power\:Rule}:\quad \int x^adx=\frac{x^{a+1}}{a+1},\:\quad \:a\ne -1\\\\\left[\frac{x^{1+1}}{1+1}\right]^6_0\\\\\left[\frac{x^2}{2}\right]^6_0=18

18 J is the work required to stretch a spring from 7 m to 13 m.

Yaneev thinks of a number y. He subtracts three from the number, then doubles it. Then he subtracts three again, and doubles the
Sergio039 [100]

Answer: y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

The given number is y.

According to the question,

Step 1 . subtracts three from the number (y-3), then doubles it

i.e. Final number = 2(y-3)

Step 2 .  subtracts three again i.e. (2(y-3)-3), and doubles the number again

i.e. Final result  = 2(2(y-3)-3)

If the result is his original number y, then

2(2(y-3)-3) =y

⇒ 2(2y-6-3)=y   [ using distributive property]

⇒ 2(2y-9)=y

⇒ 2(2y)-2(9)=y [ using distributive property]

⇒ 4y -18=y

⇒ 4y -y= 18 

⇒ 3y= 18

⇒ y= 6    [Divide both sides by 3]

Hence,  y=6

This id hard please help me do this

In this problem, we're going to use the 'PEMDAS' method.

First, we're doing the problem in the parenthesis.
44 - 4 = 40

Next in PEMDAS, we need to do the exponent.
6² = 6 x 6 = 36

Then we would do multiplication, but there is nothing to multiply so we move onto division.
40 / 2 = 20

Now we would add, but there is nothing to add so we move onto subtraction.
20 - 36 = -16

Our final answer would be -16.

Hope this helps!~
