### Problem Description:
2. The figure shows a cantilevered beam, subjected to a uniformly distributed (rectangular) 40 N/m force along the section DE, a 50 N point force at point C, and a 200 N·m couple moment.

#### Tasks:
a. Write the shear-force and bending-moment equations as a function of distance, \( x \), measured from the leftmost point, A, for the entire beam.

b. Using your shear-force and bending-moment equations, calculate the shear force and bending moment at \( x = 2 \, \text{m} \) and \( x = 5 \, \text{m} \).

### Diagram Explanation:
- The diagram shows a cantilevered beam fixed at point B.
- A couple moment of 200 N·m is applied at point A causing a counterclockwise torque.
- A point force of 50 N is applied downward at point C.
- A uniformly distributed load of 40 N/m is applied along the section from D to E.
- The sectional distances are: 
  - A to C: 2.5 meters
  - C to D: 1 meter
  - D to E: 2.5 meters
  - E to B (fixed end): 2 meters

Each section shows forces and distances for calculating shear and bending moments.
