Step 1 :Find the x and y components of each throw: \(x_1 = -16.57\), \(y_1 = -7.03\), \(x_2 = 8.92\), \(y_2 = -16.78\)
Step 2 :Add the components together: \(x_{net} = -7.65\), \(y_{net} = -23.81\)
Step 3 :Find the magnitude and direction: \(magnitude = 25.01\), \(direction = 252.19^\circ\)
Step 4 :\(\boxed{25.01 \mathrm{m} \left[\mathrm{W} 7.81^\circ \mathrm{S}\right]}\)
