Answer:

First Option
v+w = u

Explanation:

To graphically add two vectors a and b using the -tail and tip-method, you must draw the tail of b at the tip of the vector a. Then you must draw a line that goes from the tail of a to the tip of b. This line represents the sum of
a + b.

In this problem, notice that the tail of the vector w is on the tip of the vector v. The line that joins the tail of v with the tip of w is u.

Therefore we can say that
v + w = u.

The answer is the first option
