Need some help solving three equations three unknowns.

OpenStudy (lasttccasey):

Given: \[2F_B=F_A\] Solve: \[F_B∗cos(θ)−F_A∗cos(30)=0\] \[F_B∗sin(θ)+F_A∗sin(30)−98.1=0\]

Where do you run into issues? Try plugging the first equation into the second, solving for F_A or theta, and then plugging that value into the 3rd equation and solving for the remaining variable.
