Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Write the equation.

-12 = x - 5

2. Since 5 is negative and we want to leave <em>x</em> by itself, add 5 to both sides. Adding 5 with cancel out the -5.

-12 +5 = x -5 +5

3. When you add +5 to -12, the equation you are left with will be:

-7 = x

Hope this helps :)

The amount a spring will stretch, S, varies directly with the weight, F, attached to the spring. If
nexus9112 [7]

Answer: 1.5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

If two quantities are directly proportional, it means that an increase in the value of one quantity would cause a corresponding increase in the other quantity. Also, a decrease in the value of one quantity would cause a corresponding decrease in the other quantity.

Given that the amount a spring will stretch,S varies directly with weight, F, if we introduce a constant of proportionality, k, the expression becomes

S = kF

When S = 2.22 and L = 37, then

2.22 = 37k

k = 2.22/37 = 0.06

Therefore, the equation that relates the length S that the spring stretches to the weight F is

S = 0.06F

Therefore, if F = 25 pounds, then

S = 0.06 × 25

S = 1.5 inches
