Answer:
6,8,
Step-by-step explanation:
3x -x + 8 + 5x - 2 = 10
3x - x + 5x = 10 -8 +2
7x = 4
x = 7/4
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
21 I think I'm not sure tho
We know that
4 3/4---------> (4*4+3)/4----------> 19/4
1 1/10-----------> (10*1+1)/10----> 11/10
[pounds left]=[(19/4)-(11/10)-(2)]----> (10*19-4*11-40*2)/40
=(190-44-80)/40-------> 66/40---------> 1.65 pounds
1.65-----> 1 65/100--------> 1 13/20 pounds
the answer is 1.65 pounds (1 13/20 pounds)
