Answer:

The equation which correctly relates x and y is y = 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the direct variation is y = k x, where

  • k is the constant of variation
  • To find the value of k, use the initial values of x and y

∵ The variables x and y vary directly

→ Use the form of the equation above

∴ y = k x

∵ When x = 13, y = 52

→ That means the initial values of x and y are 13 and 52

∴ x = 13 and y = 52

→ Substitute them in the equation above to find k

∵ 52 = k (13)

∴ 52 = 13k

→ Divide both sides by 13

∴ 4 = k

∴ The value of k is 4

→ Substitute it in the equation

∴ y = 4x

∴ The equation which correctly relates x and y is y = 4x

Answer:

  119.05°

Step-by-step explanation:

In general, the angle is given by ...

  θ = arctan(y/x)

Here, that becomes ...

  θ = arctan(9/-5) ≈ 119.05°

_____

<em>Comment on using a calculator</em>

If you use the ATAN2( ) function of a graphing calculator or spreadsheet, it will give you the angle in the proper quadrant. If you use the arctangent function (tan⁻¹) of a typical scientific calculator, it will give you a 4th-quadrant angle when the ratio is negative. You must recognize that the desired 2nd-quadrant angle is 180° more than that.

__

It may help you to consider looking at the "reference angle." In this geometry, it is the angle between the vector v and the -x axis. The coordinates tell you the lengths of the sides of the triangle vector v forms with the -x axis and a vertical line from that axis to the tip of the vector. Then the trig ratio you're interested in is ...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent = |y|/|x|

This is the tangent of the reference angle, which will be ...

  θ = arctan(|y| / |x|) = arctan(9/5) ≈ 60.95°

You can see from your diagram that the angle CCW from the +x axis will be the supplement of this value, 180° -60.95° = 119.05°.
