The rate of change is 500.
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
We set up a proportion: 80/?= 32/100
Cross multiply: 32*?= 80*100
⇒ ?= 80*100/32= 250
80 is 32% of 250.
Answer:
d=7
Step-by-step explanation:
7-2.125= 4.875
7 is your answer as it balances both sides of the equation.
i got seven by adding 2.125. to 4.875
4+8 is 12 so yes it is correct!!!
