A. 10+ lb.
B. 10- lb.
C.9+ lb.
D. 9- lb.

Could you also explain this? I am having a hard time understanding.

Resolving 90 lb along the incline;

The resultant weight along the incline = 90 Sin ∅ = 90*H/90H = 90*1/9 = 9 lb.

The effort must overcome the resultant weight along the incline as well as the frictional force.
That is,
Fe > 9+1
Fe > 10 lb

Therefore,
Fe = 10+ lb

And the correct answer is A.
