Answer:

The work is  371 lb ft

Explanation:

The work can be calculated with yhe scalar product between the force and the displacement:

[tex] W = F.d [/tex]

The scalar product is obtained multiplying component to comoponent and summing the terms:

[tex] W [/tex] = <47, 30> · <13, -8>  [lb ft]

[tex] W [/tex] = 47*13  + 30*(-8) [lb ft]

Finally:

W = 371 [lb ft]
