Solving Vectors: Resolve T With 2 Equations & G = 9.8

[olee]

Homework Statement

I have two equations in which I need to solve for T, involving two different variables and I'm not too sure how to solve.
(G = 9.8)
10 + T₂cos25−T₁cos45 = 0
T₁sin 45+ T₂sin 25−8g = 0

Homework Equations

10 + T₂cos25−T₁cos45 = 0
T₁sin 45+ T₂sin 25−8g = 0

The Attempt at a Solution

I tried solving where i used the values of cos 25/45 and sin 25/45 and I couldn't get anywhere.

Hi olee!

10 + T₂cos25−T₁cos45 = 0
T₁sin 45+ T₂sin 25−8g = 0

uhhh? multiply the first equation by sin25º, and the second equation by cos25º, and subtract, to get an equation in T₁.
