A beam having a length of 20 metres is pivoted at its mid point. A 200 newton load is located at a point 5 m from the right hand end of the beam. A 300 newton load is located at a point 8 m from the right hand end. In order for the beam to be in equilibrium, what load is required at the extreme left end of the beam?

the moments must balance. That is, if a load of w is located 10m to the left,
10w = 200*5 + 300*2
10w = 1600
w = 160
10w = 200*5 + 300*2
10w = 1600
w = 160
