Answer:

-0.805 m

Explanation:

The x-component of a vector is given by:

[tex]v_x = v cos \theta[/tex]

where

v is the magnitude of the vector

[tex]\theta[/tex] is the angle of the vector with respect to the positive x-direction

In this problem we have

v = 0.888 m

[tex]\theta=205^{\circ}[/tex]

so we have

[tex]v_x = (0.888 m)(cos 205^{\circ})=-0.805 m[/tex]
