Afarmer uses a lever to move a large rock. the force required to move the rock varies inversely with the distance from the pivot to the point the force is applied. a force of 50 pounds applied to the lever 36 inches from the pivot point of the lever will move the rock. which function models the relationship between f, the amount of force applied to the lever and d the distance of the applied force from the pivot point?

f=1800/d Inverse proportion function. Provided f is in pounds & d is in inches.

Step-by-step explanation: the relationship between f & d is inverse proportion.

A constant k has to be derived from the relationship.

If f is inversely proportional to d then f=k(1/d)

K= f X d

= 50 X 36

=> constant K=1800.

answer: 42

use a calculator to find that 845/73 = 11.575

the whole part of the answer is 11. multiply this by 73 to get 11*73 = 803.

subtract that result from 845 to get 845 - 803 = 42

mean, 40.6
