Answer:

5 Newtons Up and 5 Newtons Right

Step-by-step explanation:

Treat each force vector as a value and choose the upward and rightward directions to be positive. Downward and Leftward forces will be considered "negative". For the vertical net force we have a positive 10 N upwards and a negative 5 N downwards. The net force in the vertical will be 5 N upwards. In the horizontal we have 10 N to the right and 5 N to the left. The net force in the horizontal will be 5 N to the Right.

It is easier if you split the motion into horizontal and vertical components.
