Question 1050447: A farmer uses a lever to move a large rock. The force required to move a rock varies inversely with the distance from the pivot point to the point of 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? Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
