Finding forces on bolted platform (torques/forces)

Homework Statement

Homework Equations

ƩF = mA
T=rxF

The Attempt at a Solution

Using sum of forces, I found:
ƩF=mA
150lb + 50lb - F₁ - F₂ = 0
(calling the support on the right "1") ƩT₁ = 0

But I'm a little confused on where to go from this point. Any advice?

 

[Villyer]

Look at each of the two supports individually. What forces act on each?

 

[austindubose]

That would be the upward force of the board due to the torque at support 1, minus the force of the bolt holding the board to the support, correct?

 

[Villyer]

And what can you say about the sum of the torques?

 

[austindubose]

The sum of the torques, because there is no motion, will equal zero. Would it be correct to say the following...?
ƩT=0
0=(150lb)(2ft)-(50lb)(1ft)+(F₂)(3ft)
F₂=83.3lb
