A 150 pound resultant force

They are vectors of equal magnitudes in oppositedirections. When you add them, they cancel out each other.
A newton is not a measure of weight, it is a measure of force. It is the force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at the the rate of 1 meter per second each second. (1 N = 1 kg.m/s2) A newton of force (in the downwards direction) at Earth's surface is numerically similar (but a bit smaller) than the mass of the object times 10 since the acceleration due to gravity is 9.80665 m/s2 at that location. In the Imperial system the equivalent unit is pound force, again this is not a weight. 1 pound-force is equivalent to 32.17 lb(mass).ft/s2.

Just by adding
if several COPLANAR FORCES are acting at a point simultaneously such that each one of them can be represented in direction and magnitude by a side of a polygon, taken in order, then the resultant is given by the closing side in the reverse order
