I then set the two eguations' FA numbers egual to each other and canceled them out. However, when I solve for FB, it keeps saying that the answer is wrong. Any tips?

Explanation / Answer

Let the tension in string A be x and that in string B be y

Balancing horizontal tensions,

-x*8/sqrt(8^2+5^2)-y*4/sqrt(4^2+5^2)+77.9*6/sqrt(6^2+3^2)=0

Balancing vertical components,

-x*5/sqrt(8^2+5^2)+y*5/sqrt(4^2+5^2)-77.9*3/sqrt(6^2+3^2)=0

x=32.9N

y=66.9N

Tension in A is 32.9N
