Answer:

a) \left(x,y\right)=\left(4.95,-4.95\right)

b) r\angle\theta = 7\angle0.5236\,\text{radians}

Step-by-step explanation:

Polar coordinates are represented as: r\angle\theta, where 'r' is the length (or magnitude) of the line, and '\theta' is the angle measured from the positive x-axis.

in our case:

7\angle\dfrac{3\pi}{4}

to covert the polar to cartesian:

x = r\cos{\theta}

y = r\sin{\theta}

we can plug in our values:

x = 7\cos{\dfrac{3\pi}{4}} = -7\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}

y = 7\sin{\dfrac{3\pi}{4}} = 7\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}

the Cartesian coordinates are:

\left(x,y\right)=\left(-7\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2},7\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}\right)

\left(x,y\right)=\left(4.95,-4.95\right)

(b) to convert (x,y) = (6.06,-3.5)

we'll use the pythagoras theorem to find 'r'

r^2 = x^2+y^2

r^2 = (6.06)^2+(-3.5)^2

r = \sqrt{48.97} \approx 7

the angle can be found by:

\tan{\theta} = \dfrac{y}{x}

\tan{\theta} = \dfrac{3.5}{6.06}

\theta = \arctan{left(\dfrac{3.5}{6.06}\right)}

\theta = 0.5236 \text{radians}

to convert radians to degrees:

\theta = 0.5236 \times \dfrac{180}{\pi} \approx 30^\circ

writing in polar coordinates:

r\angle\theta = 7\angle30^\circ\,\,\text{OR}\,\,7\angle0.5236\,\text{radians}

Katena32 [7]
The cost of the monthly fee is 50$.. if the joining fee is 100.. take 200 and subtract that fee since it is included in the total. You’re left with 100. Note, the 200 is calculated for a 2 month period, so split the remaining 100 ,from the total 200, into 2. You’re left with 50 each month.

T=(C-100)/2 (T being 1 month) (C being the total cost/200)
