There are 36 dogs in the shelter.

<h3>How to find the total number of dogs in the shelter?</h3>

The ratio of dogs to cats in the shelter is given as 9:15.

The total number of dogs and cats is given as 96.

Let the constant of proportionality be x.

The total number of dogs is 9x and the total number of cats is 15x.

This means that:

9x + 15x = 96

24x = 96

x = 4.

The total number of dogs in the shelter = 9 × 4

= 36

Therefore, we have found that there are 36 dogs in the shelter.

Find sin theta if theta is an angle in standard position and the point with coordinates (3, -4) lies on the terminal side of an
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

\sin \theta=-\frac{4}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Angle is in standard position which means the starting ray is at the origin. The terminal side has coordinates (3, -4).

So, the 'x' value is 3 and 'y' value id -4.

Using Pythagoras Theorem, we find the hypotenuse.

Hypotenuse = \sqrt{3^2+(-4)^2}=\sqrt{9+16}=\sqrt{25}=5

Now, using the sine ratio for the angle, we have

\sin \theta=\frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}\\\sin \theta=\frac{-4}{5}\\\sin \theta=-\frac{4}{5}

Therefore, the value of \sin \theta is -\frac{4}{5}.

The value is negative as the point (3, -4) lies in the fourth quadrant and sine ratio is negative in the fourth quadrant,
