answer is in pounds

The composite bar, firmly attached to unyielding supports, is
initially stressfree. What maximum axial load P can be
applied if the allowable stresses are 10 ksi for aluminum
and 18 ksi for steel?
Aluminum
A = 1.25 in.²
E = 10 x 106 psi
15 in.-
Steel
A = 2.0 in.2
E = 29 × 106 psi
-12 in.
