Safe Load The maximum safe load uniformly distributed over a one-foot section of a two-inch-wide wooden beam can be approximated by the model Load = 168.5d2472.1 where d is the depth of the beam. Evaluate the model for d=4,d=6,d=8,d=10, and d=12. Use the results to create a bar graph. Determine the minimum depth of the beam that will safely support a load of 2000 pounds.
