W = kL    where W = weight supported,  L = length of the beam and k is constant of variation.

Substituting the given values:-

310 = 2k
k = 155

so equation of variation is W = 155L

For length 10  m  the weight it can support is

W = 155*10  = 1550 kg answer

Answer:

62 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w be the weight of beam and l be the length of beam.

We have been given that the weight that a horizontal beam can support varies inversely as the length of the beam.

We know that inversely proportion quantities are in form: y=\frac{k}{x}, where k is constant of proportionality.

w=\frac{k}{l}

First of all, we will find the value of k using the w=310 and l=2 in inversely proportion equation as:

310=\frac{k}{2}

310*2=\frac{k}{2}*2

620=k

Now we will substitute 620=k and l=10, in our given equation as:

w=\frac{620}{10}

w=62

Therefore, a 10-m beam can support 62 kilograms.

What is the answer to -30x+100=-22x+140
harina [27]

Answer:

x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 22x to both sides: -8x+100=140

Subtract 100 from both sides: -8x=40

Divide both sides by -8: x=-5

So the answer is x=-5

What is the value of x then find the messures of Angles M and N​
AveGali [126]

Answer:

x=32

Step-by-step explanation:

sum of interior angles of a triangle = 180

add up all angles and equate to 180

(4x-13)+(x+18)+15=180

5x=160

x=160/5=32

x+18  =   32+18    = 50

4x-13  =  4x32-13 = 128-13 = 115

add up all to check whether ans = 180;  15+50+115=180

HURRY!!!!<br> What is the equation of the line shown in this graph?
zalisa [80]

Answer:

x = - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a vertical line parallel to the y- axis is

x = c

Where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through.

The line passes through (- 2, - 3) and (- 2, 2)

Both of these points have an x- coordinate of - 2, thus

x = - 2 ← equation of line
