### Engineering Mechanics - Frame Analysis

#### Problem Statement:
Consider the frame shown in Figure 1. The crate weighs 550 lb. Follow the sign convention.

#### Figure Description:
The figure displays a structural frame with several members labeled A, B, C, D, E, and F. 

- Point A is fixed to a wall and is 4 feet above point B on the same wall.
- The horizontal beam extends 6 feet from point A to D, divided into four equal segments (each segment being 1.5 ft long).
- Point B is connected to point C, point C to point E, and point E to point D.
- A crate weighing 550 lb is hanging vertically downwards from point D.
  
The dimensions are as follows:
- Vertical distance from point A to B: 4 ft.
- Horizontal distances from A to C, C to E, and E to D: each is 1.5 ft.
- Vertical distance from D to the crate is 0.4 ft.

#### Part E:
**Determine the shear force at point E.**

*Express your answer in pounds to three significant figures.*

\[ V_E = \_\_\_\_\_ \text{ lb} \]

Submit your answer using the provided interface.

#### Part F:
**Determine the moment at point E.**

*Express your answer in pound-feet to three significant figures.*

\[ M_E = \_\_\_\_\_ \text{ lb} \cdot \text{ft} \]

Submit your answer using the provided interface.
