Two boats are pulling a very large, derelict boat behind them. One boat is exerting a force of

$1.1 xx 10^6$ N on the derelict boat in the direction S10°W. The second boat is pulling with a force of

$1.3 xx 10^6$ N in the direction S5°E. What is the resulting force acting on the derelict boat and in what direction? Round answers to the nearest whole unit.

The resulting force is $1.4 xx 10^6$ N, in the direction S7°E.
The resulting force is $2.4 xx 10^6$ N, in the direction S2°W.
The resulting force is $3.7 xx 10^5$ N, in the direction S8°W.
The resulting force is $1.6 xx 10^6$ N, in the direction S2°E.
