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

Does anyone know the answer to this question. I already tried A and C.
Archy [21]

I think the answer would have to be D. If the diameter, which is the distance from one point on the circle through the center to another point on the circle, is halved then the amount of concrete that will be needed will be multiplied by 4. I think that's right I am so sorry in advance if that was incorrect. Have a beautiful rest of your day. Stay safe. C O V I D - 1 9 IS REAL THIS COULD MEAN YOUR LIFE!!!
