Sorry I did not specify. I am not sure how to solve the problem, I can find the Force and Moment around O but cannot find the line of action on x. If you could briefly explain how to do the problem that would be great. Thanks!

In tightening a bolt whose center is at point O, a person exerts a 180-N force on the ratchet handle with his right hand. In addition, with his left hand he exerts a 90-N force as shown in order to secure the socket onto the bolt head. Determine the equivalent force–couple system at O. Then find...
