The distance a spring stretches varies directly as the amount of weight that is hanging on it. A weight of 2.5 pounds stretches

a spring 18 inches. Find the stretch of the spring when a weight of 6.4 pounds is hanging on it.

2.5 / 18 = 6.4 / x
cross multiply
(2.5)(x) = (18)(6.4)
2.5x = 115.2
x = 115.2 / 2.5
x = 46.08 inches
