Homework Statement
The problem asks to find the reaction forces for each of the bearings. For such bearings, the reaction forces can be looked up in a textbook, but they just act perpendicular to the shaft.
Homework Equations
Sum of the forces and moments = 0.
The Attempt at a Solution
I understand and have myself reproduced the 6 equations. My problem is now solving for the 6 unknowns. My usual approach in the past has been to just do some simple substitutions. It's not working for me here, and I can't even reproduce the same answer using an online systems of equations calculator. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Here is the problem and the solution: https://imgur.com/a/LrFb8
