Answer:
(8.49; 225°)
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle is a 3rd-quadrant angle. The reference angle will be ...
arctan(-6/-6) = 45°
In the 3rd quadrant, the angle is 45° +180° = 225°.
The magnitude of the vector to the point is its distance from the origin:
√((-6)² +(-6)²) = √(6²·2) = 6√2 ≈ 8.4859 ≈ 8.49
The polar coordinates can be written as (8.49; 225°).

<em>Additional comment</em>
My preferred form for the polar coordinates is 8.49∠225°. Most authors use some sort of notation with parentheses. If parentheses are used, I prefer a semicolon between the coordinate values so they don't get confused with an (x, y) ordered pair that uses a comma. You need to use the coordinate format that is consistent with your curriculum materials.
1) 4.55
2) Short hit
Step-by-step explanation:
1)
The table containing the score and the relative probability of each score is:
Score 3 4 5 6 7
Probability 0.15 0.40 0.25 0.15 0.05
Here we call
X = Miguel's score on the Water Hole
The expected value of a certain variable X is given by:
where
are all the possible values that the variable X can take
is the probability that
Therefore in this problem, the expected value of MIguel's score is given by:
2)
In this problem, we call:
X = Miguel's score on the Water Hole
Here we have that:
- If the long hit is successfull, the expected value of X is
- Instead, if the long hit fails, the expected value of X is
Here we also know that the probability of a successfull long hit is
Which means that the probabilty of an unsuccessfull long hit is
Therefore, the expected value of X if Miguel chooses the long hit approach is:
In part 1) of the problem, we saw that the expected value for the short hit was instead
Since the expected value for X is lower (=better) for the short hit approach, we can say that the short hit approach is better.
