The length that a hanging spring stretches varies directly with the weight placed at the end of the spring. If a weight of 12lb
stretches a certain spring 16in., how far will the spring stretch if the weight is increased to 35lb? (Leave the variation constant in fraction form. Round off your final answer to the nearest in.)
Well 36 divided by 6 is 6 so multiply that by two and you get 12 14 divided by 6 is 2.3 round that to 2 and multiply it by 2 you get 4 4 +12 is 16 so 16 should be your answer
