Using a lever or pulley system allows a person to trade force for distance, making tasks easier. By applying a small force over a longer distance, the overall work required is reduced. This principle is based on the conservation of energy and mechanical advantage.
An inclined plane reduces the amount of force needed to lift an object by increasing the distance over which the force is applied. This allows you to exert a smaller force over a longer distance to move an object to a higher elevation, making it easier to lift heavy objects.
A simple machine doesn't increase the amount of work a person can do, but it allows a person to apply a smaller input force over a larger distance to achieve the same amount of output force over a smaller distance. In essence, it makes work easier by trading off force for distance.
Moving an object up an inclined plane requires less force compared to lifting it straight up. An inclined plane makes work easier by increasing the distance an object must be moved and changing the height that it spans.decreasing the force.
A lever makes things easier by allowing you to apply a smaller force over a larger distance to move a heavier object over a shorter distance. This principle of leverage helps to amplify the force applied, making tasks that would be difficult to do by direct force more manageable.
An inclined plane reduces the amount of force required to lift an object by spreading the work out over a longer distance. This allows the force needed to be applied more gradually and with less effort.
simple machines
True. Machines do aid in making work easier over a longer distance.
A machine makes work easier by reducing force and increasing distance.

Because the force is lesse but the distance is more
A machine makes work easier by changing the amount of force you exert, the distance over which you exert your force, or the direction in which you exert your force.
An inclined plane reduces the amount of force needed to lift an object by increasing the distance over which the force is applied. This allows you to exert a smaller force over a longer distance to move an object to a higher elevation, making it easier to lift heavy objects.
machines make work easier by cahnging the amount of force exerted, and changing the distance and derection of the force
