So the final answer would look something like this? Or am I multiplying the top and bottom wrong? I aplogize I forget to remove the extra m from this one, but I'm a bit confused as to why it would cancel. The starting equation has 1 m on one side, and 2 on the other. Wouldn't only one m on...

I went ahead and plugged in the equations from part A to solve part B, let me know if I messed up somewhere please

Alright, so using the same methods as above I solve for T2 in a similar manner. This should take care of part A, assuming this is correct?

Something like this? I have two versions as I was unsure whether to combine the terms or divide the sin Thank you all for your replies though, it has been a while since any sort of math class and I know I'm still really rough on it

This is what I end up getting but it really doesn't seem right. Once again I apologize for my incredibly rusty algebra

Kind of like this? Or am I not doing this correctly? EDIT: Obviously I didn't solve this yet, but when solved would this be correct? I haven't solved it because I have trouble getting T1 by itself since there is two of them in the equation

Okay, let me start with A and see if I'm on the right track Lets say I keep what I got for T2. Would I substitute that in for the second equation and solve for T1? My algebra is admittedly kind of rusty, and I'm having trouble isolating both T1s by themselves when I do that
