6: 1=5:x
X=5/6=0.83 cm,
The original length of the spring is 12.5 cm, so when using a 5 kg object, the length of the spring is12.5+0.83 =13.33 cm.
2. The original proportion of people who reached the standard was 3/(3+5)=3/8.
9/20-3/8=3/40 is the proportion after an increase of 60 people.
60/(3/40)=800 people
3.0.9 1/(4/5)- 1.25*0.7 1
=0.9 1*(5/4)-(5/4)*0.7 1
=(5/4)*(0.9 1-0.7 1)
=(5/4)*0.2
=(5/4)*( 1/5)
= 1/4
=0.25
