given the vector with a manitude of 9m at an angle a of -80 degrees, decompose this vector into two vector components oarallel to the x axis with a slope of

We have the magnitude, M, and the angle A.

(The angle is always measured from the +x-axis)

Then we have that:

x = M*cos(A)

y = M*sin(A)

in this case:

M = 9m

A = -80°

x = 9m*cos(-80°) = 1.562

y = 9m*sin(-80) = -8.86m

Now, the component parallel to the x axis is:

x = 9m*cos(-80°) = 1.562 m

And the slope of something parallel to the x-axis is always zero, as this is a constant line.
