Explanation:

From the attached figure, OAB forms a triangle having,

a = (2,1)

b = (3,-2)

Vector, OA = 2x + y

Vector, AB = x - 3 y

The resultant can be calculated using triangular law of vector addition as :

[tex]r=OA+AB[/tex]

[tex]r=2x+y+(x-3y)[/tex]

[tex]r=3x-2y[/tex]

So, the sum of the vectors plotted below is [tex]3x-2y[/tex]. Hence, the correct option is (c).
