Draw a free body diagram.

\n

For a general solution, take an imaginary cut at $x$ and draw a free body diagram of the portion of the beam to the left of that point.  $V(x)$ and $M(x)$ are drawn in the positive directions for shear and bending moment.  

\n

\n

\n

At location $x$ the downward loading is proportionally less than the maximum loading at the wall, $w$.

\n

$w(x) = \\left(\\frac{x}{L}\\right) w$

\n

Determine equivalent load, $W$, by finding the area and centroid of the triangular load.

\n

$W = \\dfrac{(w x/L) (x)}{2} = \\dfrac {w x^2}{2 L}$ acting at a distance of $\\dfrac{2 x}{3}$ from the left, or $\\dfrac{x}{3}$ from the cut.

\n

Apply equations of equilibrium to the free body diagram.

\n

$\\begin{align} \\Sigma F_y &= 0 & \\Sigma M_{cut} &= 0\\\\ -W - V(x) &=0 & (W)(x/3) + M(x) &=0\\\\ V(x) &=-\\dfrac {w x^2}{2 L}& M(x) &= -\\dfrac {w x^3}{6 L}  \\end{align}$
