Question: ( 5 0 pts ) A 2 x ASTM A 3 6 steel bar is loaded as shown below. Determine the maximum deflection

(50 pts ) A 2"x" ASTM A36 steel bar is loaded as shown below. Determine the maximum deflection at the end of the cantilever beam in inches using the following deflection methods:
A.(25 pts) Superposition (Formula) method.
R.(25 pts) Moment-Area Method.
NOTE: Both deflection method solutions will be the same. When doing the moment-area method you must add 4' to the x-bar of the triangular moment diagram.
Neglect the weight of the beam.
X bar for the triangle is the base length x23.
