Hooke’s Law The force F required to stretch a spring varies directly with the amount the spring is stretched s. Eight pounds is needed to stretch a spring 8 inches. a. Write a direct variation equation that relates F and s. b. How much force is required to stretch a spring 25 inches? 33. Basement Waterproofing One way to keep moisture out of your basement is to paint the walls with a waterproof paint. The number g (of gallons) of paint you need varies directly with the area A of the basement. One gallon of paint covers 100 square feet. a. Write a direct variation equation that relates g and A. b. How many gallons do you need to cover 530 square feet? c. How many square feet does 8.5 gallons of paint cover? 34. Downloading Files The table shows the amount of time t (in seconds) it takes to download a file of size s (in kilobytes). a. Explain why s varies directly with t. b. Write a direct variation equation that relates s and t. c. How long will it take to download an 800-kilobyte file? Round your answer to the nearest second. 3-80 Time, t (sec) File size, s (kb) 15 420 30 840 45 1260 Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company. All rights reserved.
