In order to calculate the x-component of this vector, we can use the formula below:
[tex]V_x=V\cdot\cos\theta[/tex]
Using V = 0.888 and theta = 205°, we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} V_x=0.888\cdot\cos205°\\ \\ V_x=0.888\cdot(-0.9063)\\ \\ V_x=-0.805\text{ m} \end{gathered}[/tex]
Therefore the x-component is equal to -0.805 m.
