BTW if in any case, the system is in equilibrium, then the tension is always equal to the weight right?You mean A and C? It says the whole system is in equilibrium , so for A and C to stay in equilibrium , the tension in the strings they are attached to must be equal to their weights respectively, thus first string has a tension of 5.5 N and the other string has a tension of W N
In other words, just resolve at A and resolve at C
