Force-extension graphs and elastic energy

How is extension (xxx) calculated from length measurements?

A

x=L−L0x = L - L_{0}x=L−L0​ (stretched length minus original length)

B

x=L0−Lx = L_{0} - Lx=L0​−L (original length minus stretched length)

C

x=L+L0x = L + L_{0}x=L+L0​ (stretched length plus original length)

D

x=L/L0x = L / L_{0}x=L/L0​ (stretched length divided by original length)
