Determine whether the force-and-couple system shown can be reduced to a single equivalent force R. If it can, determine R and the point where the line of action of R intersects the yz-plane. If it cannot be so reduced, replace the given system with an equivalent wrench and determine its resultant, its pitch, and the point where its axis intersects the yz-plane.
