What is the net force action on the sofa?

Question

While preparing to move, Jeremy pushes his couch slowly across the floor with a force of 250.0 N to the left. The force of friction opposing his motion is 295.0 N, and the sofa itself weighs 1225.0 N. What is the net force action on the sofa?

Answer 1

The problem statement must have an error.  The opposing force of friction cannot exceed the applied force.  If it did, the sofa would be accelerating to the left.
