The way she put it implies that she will sell many water bottles and only one iced tea. the correct equation would be 1.25x+1.49y=100, as she may sell different amounts of each.
To solve this we are going to use the formula fro the force applied to a spring:

where

is the spring constant

is the extension
Since we know the

, we can replace that in our formula and solve for

:


where

is the acceleration

is the spring constant

is the extension

is the mass
We know for our problem that

,

, and

. So lets replace those values in our formula to find

:



We can conclude that the acceleration of the block when s=0.4m is

.
Answer:
I believe "The height of each pyramid is one-half h units"
First, you need to determine the resultant force and its angle. This one is real easy, since you only have one (x) and one (y) component. X = 300 and Y = 480
<span>1) sqrt (300^2 + 480^2) = ? (round your answer) </span>
<span>2) tanθ = y/x Solving for θ: θ = tan^-1(y/x): θ = ? (round your answer) </span>
<span>Now, you should have a resultant force value and its angle, from zero, in the first quadrant and between the Y and N axes. Draw yourself a diagram showing all of the axes, the resultant and the angles. You're going to have to do some very easy math to determine the angles between the Y and N axes and the resultant. Call these new angles α and β. α is the angle between N and the resultant and β is the angle between T and the resultant. Hint: one of them is 28 deg. </span>
<span>Once you've gotten those figured, the Y and N axes become your new axis, ignore the X and Y. Find the X and Y components of the resultant (again). ? * cos(α) = 500 and ? * sin(β) = 266 (round your answers)</span>
