Answer:

22.5 Nm

Step-by-step explanation:

The work done is the area under the force-displacement graph.

From A to P, the area is a rectangle.

From P to Q, the area is a trapezoid.

From Q to R, the area is a triangle.

From R to B, the area is a triangle.

The total area is:

(10 N) (1 m) + ½ (10 N + 15 N) (1 m) + ½ (15 N) (1 m) + ½ (-15 N) (1 m)

22.5 Nm
