I am not sure how to work this problem. The problem gives the answers but does not show how to work the problem. 

2. A lion and a tiger pull Dorothy on a sled on level ground.
Given: Fiion = 800 N, Friger
between the sled and the ground uk = 0.74 and the vector diagram below.
= 650 N, mass of sled and Dorthy m = 86 kg, coefficient of friction
%D
Find the acceleration of the sled and Dorothy. Give your answer in magnitude and direction form.
Note: The overhead drawing shows the forces of
the lion and tiger (assume the ropes are horizontal).
It does not show the force of friction. Assume that
the sled started from rest, and was able to break
free of static friction. Assume Dorothy does not
slide on the surface of the sled.

2. The force of the Lion and Tiger add to 1258 N at 77° ccw of x. Since the sled is moving in that
direction, lets rename that direction x then friction is in the -x direction. This is a simple 1-D equation.
a = 7.38 m/s2.
