Either c or d but most likely c
x > -1
-2x+5 < 7
-2x<2
Now since you divide by (-1) to get positive 2,you need to flip the sign
(-2)/(-1)= 2 2/(-1)=-2
SO
2x>-2
x > -1
To check the solution do not replace the x by -1 because it shouls be more than -1 (You can choose 0,1,2,3....)
Example choose x=3
-2x3+5<7
-6+5<7
-1<7
Y = 17/sin(30°) = 17/(1/2) = 34
x = y*cos(30°) = 34 * (√3)/2 = 17√3
The work done (in foot-pounds) in stretching the spring from its natural length to 0.7 feet beyond its natural length is 1.23 foot-pound
<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
- Force (F) = 3 pounds
- Extension (e) = 0.6 feet
- Work done (Wd) =?
<h3>How to determine the spring constant</h3>
- Force (F) = 3 pounds
- Extension (e) = 0.6 feet
- Spring constant (K) =?
F = Ke
Divide both sides by e
K = F/ e
K = 3 / 0.6
K = 5 pound/foot
Thus, the spring constant of the spring is 5 pound/foot
<h3>How to determine the work done</h3>
- Spring constant (K) = 5 pound/foot
- Extention (e) = 0.7 feet
- Work done (Wd) =?
Wd = ½Ke²
Wd = ½ × 5 × 0.7²
Wd = 2.5 × 0.49
Wd = 1.23 foot-pound
Therefore, the work done in stretching the spring 0.7 feet is 1.23 foot-pound
