Answer:

5m/s²

Step-by-step explanation

100N and 80N of forces act in the same direction so we will add them together

100N + 80N = 180N

while 30N force act in opposite direction so we will have to subtract

180N – 30N = 150N

force = 150N

mass = 30 kg

acceleration = ?

using the formula

f = m × a


a = (f)/(m)


a = (150)/(30) = {5ms}^( - 2)

I hope this helps
