Two children sit on a seesaw that is 14 ft long. One child weighs 95 lb, and the other child weighs 69 lb. If x is the distance of the 69-pound child from the fulcrum when the seesaw balances, state the value of each of the other variables in the lever-system formula F1x = F2(d – x), and solve for that distance. (Round your answers to two decimal places.)
