SUMMARY
The discussion focuses on solving a vector-related homework problem, emphasizing the importance of vector addition. The key takeaway is that the net change in the x-direction is independent of the change in the y-direction, which is crucial for understanding vector components. Participants are encouraged to determine the values of bx and cy before attempting to sketch vectors. The user @LemmeThink provided a hint to assist in answering parts (a) and (b) without relying on a vector diagram.
PREREQUISITES- Understanding of vector addition principles

Hi!
Make use of vector addition - by making use of the fact that the net change in the ##x##-direction is independent of the change in the ##y##-direction.

Before you attempt to draw the vectors, you need to figure out the values of bx and cy because you don't know how big they are and whether they are positive or negative. Do you know how to answer parts (a) and (b) without drawing a vector diagram? @LemmeThink gave you a hint.
