### Structural Analysis Problem: Beam Deflection and Slope Calculation

**Question:** Determine the deflection and slope at point \( C \) by using the singularity function method.

**Diagram Explanation:**

- **A Simply Supported Beam:** The diagram features a simply supported beam \( AB \), which is acted upon by two different loads.
- **Support Conditions:**
  - **Point \( A \):** This end of the beam is supported by a pin support.
  - **Point \( B \):** This end of the beam is supported by a roller support.
- **Loading Conditions:**
  - There is a uniformly distributed load of \( 30 \, \text{kN/m} \) acting over the length \( AC \) (2.4 m from \( A \)).
  - Additionally, there is a concentrated load of \( 50 \, \text{kN} \) acting at point \( D \), which is 1.2 meters from \( B \).
- **Dimensions:**
  - From \( A \) to \( C \): \( 2.4 \, \text{m} \)
  - From \( C \) to \( D \): \( 1.2 \, \text{m} \)
  - From \( D \) to \( B \): \( 1.2 \, \text{m} \)

**Objective:**
- Determine the deflection (vertical displacement) and slope (angular displacement) at point \( C \).

**Methods:**
- Use the singularity function method for calculating the deflection and slope at the specified point on the beam.
