This year, the giant panda was reclassified as "vulnerable" from its long held "endangered" status, because the wild population became high enough. Currently there are about 2500 pandas living globally. The population needs to reach 10,000 to be reclassified as "near threatened." The recent reclassification was made possible by the 17% population increase per decade. How long will it take for the population to grow to that amount if the rate stays the same?

I've been working on this for a few days and i just don't understand, it's due in a few hours. you. the direction of a vector is defined as the angle of the vector in relation to a horizontal line. as a standard, this angle is measured counterclockwise from the positive x-axis. the direction or angle of v in the diagram is α.part a: how can you use trigonometric ratios to calculate the direction α of a general vector v = < x, y> similar to the diagram? part bsuppose that vector v lies in quadrant ii, quadrant iii, or quadrant iv. how can you use trigonometric ratios to calculate the direction (i. e., angle) of the vector in each of these quadrants with respect to the positive x-axis? the angle between the vector and the positive x-axis will be greater than 90 degrees in each case. part cnow try a numerical problem. what is the direction of the vector w = < -1, 6 > ?
