Answer:

2.98 kN, 69.1° below the horizontal

Explanation:

Sum of forces in the x direction:

Fₓ = 3 kN cos 30° − 2 kN cos 40°

Fₓ ≈ 1.07 kN

Sum of forces in the y direction:

Fᵧ = -3 kN sin 30° − 2 kN sin 40°

Fᵧ = -2.79 kN

Magnitude of the resultant force is:

F² = Fₓ² + Fᵧ²

F = 2.98 kN

The direction of the resultant force is:

tan θ = Fᵧ / Fₓ

θ = -69.1°
