What is the angle between the given vector and the positive direction of the x-axis? (Round your answer to the nearest degree.) i + 3 j

72°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two vectors a and b, The vector i+3j will form a right angled triangle with the x-axis (i.e the horizontal axis).

The opposite side of the triangle on the Cartesian plane will be 3units along the y axis while the adjacent will be 1 unit along the x axis.

The angle between thus two vectors is expressed as tan (theta) = opp/adj

tantheta = 3/1

theta = tan^-1(3)

Theta = 71.57° ≈ 72° to nearest degree

stew reads at the fastest rate of 265 words per minute.

step-by-step explanation:

it's a given that felicia reads at 260 word per minute and on connie's graph we can see that she reads 200 words per minute. since stew's table tells us that he read 795 in 3 minutes, we can divide 795 by 3 to find out how many words he reads per minute.

795/3 = 265

stew reads 265 words per minute - he reads at the fastest rate since felecia reads at 260 words per minute and connie reads at 200 words per minute.

stew (265) > felecia (260) > connie (200)

answer: it's d
