Platform drop when the spring is maximally compressed


Spiderman (m=70 kg) leaps from a height of 3 m onto a large spring supported platform (M=500 kg) supported below by a spring with k=1400 N/m. (Note; the spring is already compressed some distance x due to the weight of the platform). What additional distance Y does the platform drop when the spring is maximally compressed and the platform comes to a momentary rest?
