For the fulcrum to balance, the product of weight and distance on both sides of the fulcrum must be the same.

Let d1= x. since total distance is 12, we can write d2 = 12 - x

for the fulcrum to balance:

60x = 50(12 - x)

60x = 600 - 50x

110x = 600

x = 5.45

Thus, d1= 5.45
and
d2= 12 - d1 = 12 - 5.45 = 6.55

d1 = 5.45
d2 = 6.55

For this case we have the following system of equations:
 Equilibrium equation:
 60 * d1 = 50 * d2
 Total distance:
 d1 + d2 = 12
 Solving the equations we have:
 d1 = 5.45 feet
 d2 = 6.55 feet
 Answer:
 
the distances d1 and d2 have to be:
 d1 = 5.45 feet
 d2 = 6.55 feet

PLEASE HURRY. <br> 24. Factor completely<br> (1 Point<br> 14x^3 – 16x^2 + 21x – 24
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

(7x - 8)(2x² + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

14x³ - 16x² + 21x - 24 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )

= 2x²(7x - 8) + 3(7x - 8) ← factor out (7x - 8) from each term

= (7x - 8)(2x² + 3)
