Step 1: Firstly, we draw both of the axes.

Step 2: We then draw a vector of length 3.5 m (theoretical) along the (-x) axis.

Step 3: Next, we draw a vector of length 8.2 m from the endpoint towards to top, at an angle of 60° from that point (N.B: 90-30, since it is required to make a 30°∠ with the current vertical; eventually the triangle being formed will be 90° minus the 30°.) Most importantly, the 8.2 m vector should be drawn in such a way so that it is higher than the starting point of the 3.5 m vector. )

Step 4: Lastly, we draw a 15 m vector from the endpoint of the 8.2 m vector, running above the original vector, and to the left. This one should be drawn on the left side, and must be situated far enough.

∴ Triangle 1 () is of angles 30°, 60° and 90°;

On solving for the vertical side (the slope similar to the 3.5 vector), we get

(8.2/2) m = 4.1 m

Next, we solve for the opposite side via 4.1 × √3= 7.1 m

Moving on to Triangle 2 (),

top side = (15 - 7.1) m = 7.9 m

similarly, right side = (4.1 - 3.5) m = 0.6 m

∴ last side = resultant displacement:

⇒ + (0.6)² = 7.9 m

and, direction of displacement = arcTan(y/x)

= arcTan(0.6/7.9)

= 4.3° north of west

350-100=250 .  

. 250/10=25

step-by-step explanation:

first take off 100, then what x 10 = 250? that is your answer. (25)
