Four parallel forces act on the plate as shown. For the force system shown, find the equivalent resultant force and specify its x and y location from the origin, given: 
  FA = 170 lbs,   FB = 240 lbs,   FC = 210 lbs,   FD = 140 lbs,   LX = 16 ft,   LY = 14 ft,   BY = 5 ft,   DX = 6 ft 

 

The magnitude of resultant force, FR is: (positive number)

FR =  lbs

 

The distance from the Origin in the positive X-direction is:

X =  ft

 

The distance from the Origin in the positive Y-direction is:

Y =  ft
