Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

moments about the fulcrum should be equal

IF x is the distance of the fulcrum from the 90 lb child

90[x] = 60[12 - x]

90x = 720 - 60x

150x = 720

x = 4.8 ft

90(4.8) = 432 ft•lb

60(12 - 4.8) = 432 ft•lb

A town reported that it received 8/12 of a foot of snow on Monday and another 1/12 of a foot of snow on Tuesday. How much fresh
matrenka [14]

The town received 9/12 of a foot of snow over the two days.

We are aware that adding two whole numbers yields the total amount or sum of the two values. Since the town received 8/12 of a foot of snow on Monday and another 1/12 of a foot of snow on Tuesday, the word “another” in this problem is a clue to use addition to solve the problem. So, the expression 8/12 + 1/12 will give the total amount of snow over the two days.

Now, 8/12 + 1/12 = (8 + 1)/12 = 9/12

i.e. the total amount of snow was 9/12 of a foot.

If we subtract 1/12 from 9/12, we get 9/12 - 1/12 = (9 - 1)/12 = 8/12 of a foot of snow.

We can conclude that the town received 9/12 of a foot of snow over the two days.
