Your answer in (b-30 degrees.

Answer:

b. 30 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle measure that marlin should use for every type of hit during the baseball season is determined by the following equation:

[tex]Angle = \frac{Number Of Specific Hits}{Total Hits} * 360[/tex]

Then, The total Hits are the sum of singles, doubles, triples and home runs that marlin got. That is 24 hits and it is calculated as:

13 singles + 5 doubles + 2 triples +4 home runs = 24 hits

So,  to calculate the measure of the angle for triples, we need to replace the number of specific hits by 2 and total hits by 24 and it gets:

[tex]Angle = \frac{2}{24} * 360[/tex]

Angle = 30 degrees
