Chapter 2.4, Problem 74E
Strength of a Beam The maximum load that a horizontal beam can carry is directly proportional to its width. If a beam 1.5 inches wide can support a load of 250 pounds, find the load that a beam of the same type can support if its width is 3.5 inches.

For Exercise, use a variation model to solve for the unknown value.
The strength of a wooden beam varies jointly as the width of the beam and the square of the thickness of the beam, and
inversely as the length of the beam. A beam that is 48 in. long, 6 in. wide, and 2 in. thick can support a load of 417 lb. Find
the maximum load that can be safely supported by a board that is 12 in. wide, 72 in. long, and 4 in. thick.
L = length
T = thickness
W = width
Geographers find that the length of a river varies with the 0.6 power of the river basin. The Rio Grande is 3034kilometers long, and the basin is 500,000 square kilometers. Find the particular equation and use it to predict the riverbasin of the Nile (to the nearest hundred‐thousand), which at 6700 kilometers is the longest river in the world.
The maximum load a beam will support varies directly with the square of the diagonal of the beam's cross-section. A beam with diagonal 6 in will support a maximum load of 108 lb. Write the equation that relates the load L to the diagonal d of the cross-section. How large of a load, in pounds, will beam with a 10 in diagonal support?
