Find maximum force

The cylinder head of a piston-type air compressor is held in place by ten bolts. The total joint
stiffness is 2 times total bolt stiffness. Each bolt is tightened to an initial tension of 6 kN. The total
external force acting to separate the joint fluctuates between 0 and 25 kN. Assume that the bolt size
and material are such that the bolt load remains within the elastic range.
What is the maximum force in each bolt (in units of kN) under these external loading conditions?
