Question 1099988: Chains support a​ crate, as shown on the right. The equations relating tensions Upper T1 and Upper T2 are given below. Determine the tensions to the nearest 1N from the graph.
0.6T1-0.4T2=16
0.4T1+0.6T2=64
What is the solution to T1 and T2? (round to the nearest whole number as needed)

Solved by pluggable solver: SOLVE linear system by SUBSTITUTION
Solve:
We'll use substitution. After moving 0.4*T2 to the right, we get:
, or . Substitute that
into another equation:
and simplify: So, we know that T2=160. Since , T1=-80.

Answer: .
