Let T1 be the tension in the left rope and T2 be the tension in the right rope. A vertical force balance tells you that T1 + T2 = (M1+M2)g = (69.5 + 22.3)* (9.8) N You don't need that equation to solve for T2. You can use the fact that the torque about the
The factors of x^2 - 8x + 16 are (x-4)(x-4) You did not write an equation. If you had written x^2 -8x + 16 = 0, which IS an equation, the answer would be x = 4. That would be the only answer, since both factors are zero when x = 4.
Show your work and I will provide help. If you don't show any work or thought, perhaps another teacher will still help you. No one seems to be showing any work anymore at this website. I have reached my limit of patience.
