Weight a weighs 50 pounds. weight b weighs 100 pounds. if a is placed 6 feet from the pivot, how far must b be placed from the pivot in order for the bar to achieve balance?

To achieve balance, the momentum on both sides must be equal so that it cancels out. Momentum is simply the product of mass and distance, therefore:

50 pounds * 6 ft = 100 pounds * X

X = 3 ft

Hence B must be placed 3 ft from the pivot.

answer: 1,380

step-by-step explanation:

1: you turn %15 into a decimal by moving the decimal point two places to the left.

2: and then you multiply .15 by 1,200 , which will get you 180.00

3: from there you will add 180 to 1,200

4: which will get you 1,380
