Please Show your step by step solution. Draw a figure and Free Body Diagram (FBD) whenever necessary. Use 4 decimal places in your solution and 2 decimal places in your final answer. 

3. Two window washers, Bob and Joe, are on a 3.00-m-long, 345-N scaffold supported by two
cables attached to its ends. Bob weighs 750N and stands 1.00 m from the left end. Two meters from the
left end is the 500-N washing equipment. Joe is 0.500 m from the right end and weighs 1 000 N. Given
that the scaffold is in rotational and translational equilibrium, what are the forces on each cable?
