On the third day, Ate Neo's mission is to conduct a routine patrol in a park. She notices a "taho" vendor who is carrying two aluminum buckets that hang from each end of a 1.75-m long milkmaid's yoke. The buckets are 5.50 kg on the right side and 7.00 kg on the left side. At which point (from the right end) should the vendor carry the yoke with the buckets to balance it over his shoulder? Assume that the weight of the yoke is negligible.
