Im trying to use finite element analysis to find the deformation of a cantilever beam. There are two point loads which I think Ive entered correctly and then there is a distributed load which varies by x and is described by (-0.56584)*(x^2)+3391.01. How do i enter this as a load into mechanica?

Ive attached my work so far with what I think is correct, any feedback would be appreciated.
