The vector v is given by: v = (7, 2) - (-5, 0) v = ((7 - (- 5)), (2-0)) v = ((7 + 5), 2) v = (12, 2) Then, the angle is given by: tan (theta) = 2/12 theta = atan (2/12) theta = 9.46 degrees Answer: The direction angle of vector to the nearest tenth of a degree is: theta = 9.5 degrees
A line parallel to the y-axis that passes through (77,88) is x = 77. There is no slope-intercept form of this equation if our coordinate system is based upon a horizontal x-axis and a vertical y-axis.
If they won 55 of the games, that means they lost the rest of the 75. So, 75 - 55 = 20 games lost. To find the percentage of 20 out of 75, you set up a proportion:
where x = the percentage of games lost. Cross multiply and divide to isolate the x:
Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the Royals lost 26.667 % of their games.
