The magnitude is pointing towards the origin and is at - 20 degrees. The combination makes 160 with the x axis: C answer

They keep doing this. They use distance where they should use displacement but they use distance to try and fool you. It's a mighty poor practice.
The distance between the start and end points is the displacement. That "distance" is 180*sqrt(25) = 900 . The actual distance should be 180*4 + 180*3 = 720 + 540 = 1260. That's what a car's odometer or a bicycle odometer would read. the difference is 360.
I really do object to the wording, but what can I do?

Nine is the same thing as 8.
Displacement = sqrt(400^2 + 80^2)= sqrt(166400) = 408
The actual distance is 400 + 80 = 480
The difference is the answer = 480 - 408 = 72 <<<< Answer

This is just the displacement magnitude.
dis = sqrt(30^2 + 80^2)
dis = sqrt(900 + 6400)
dis = sqrt(7300)
dis = 85.44 <<<< Answer D

Vi = 2.15*Sin(30) = 1.075 m/s
vf = 0
a = - 9.81
t = ?
<u>Formula</u>
a = (vf - vi)/t
<u>Solve</u>
-9.81 = (0 - 1.075)/t
- 9.81 * t = -1.075
t = 0.11 seconds

I'm leaving this last one to you. You need the initial height xo to answer it properly. Judging by the other questions, this one is right.
Edit
That is a surprise! Really quickly
d = 3.2 m
a = - 9.82
vf = 0
vi = ?
vf^2 = vi^2 - 2*a*d
0 = vi^2 - 2*9.81*3.2
vi = sqrt(19.62*3.2)
vi = 8.0 m/s But that is the vertical component of the speed
v = vi/sin(25)
v = 8.0/sin(25) = 11
