Answer:

The west component is a negative number, and the north component is a positive number.

Explanation:

For this problem, we take the standard Cartesian axis, so that:

- along the vertical axis, the north direction is positive, and the south direction is negative

- along the horizontal axis, the east direction is positive, and the west direction is negative

The boat travels in a direction which is 25° west of north. This means that its vertical component is in the north direction, while the horizontal component is in the west direction. Since north = positive and west = negative, the correct option is

The west component is a negative number, and the north component is a positive number.

The answer I believe is c
Explanation
During the day when temperatures are higher, the snow melts and water enters the cracks in the rock. When the temperature drops below 0°C the water in the crack freezes and expands by about 9 per cent. This makes the crack larger.
