Answer:
A
Explanation:
Let's illustrate this; see the attachment.
We see that Mrs. Jacobson is pushing to the right with a force of 100 N and there is another opposite force pushing with a force of 15 N. Since these are in opposite directions, we can say that the force opposite to Mrs. Jacobson is pushing the fridge -15 N to the right (instead of 15 N to the left).
The net force would then be:
100 N + (-15 N) = 85 N to the right
The answer is A.
