Answer:

5:7

Step-by-step explanation:

There's 21 bottles total, and 15 plastic bottles.

15:21

Both 15 and 21 are divisible by 3.

15/3 = 5

21/3 = 7

What value of x is in the solution set of 9(2x + 1) &lt; 9x – 18
netineya [11]
The answer is:  " x < -3 " .
_____________________
Explanation:
_____________________
Given:
______________________
  " 9(2x + 1) < 9x – 18 " ;

First , factor out a "9" in the expression on the right-hand side of the inequality:

9x – 18 = 9(x – 2) ;

and rewrite the inequality:
_____________________
9(2x + 1) < 9(x – 2) ;

Now, divide EACH SIDE of the inequality by "9" ;

[9(2x + 1)] / 9 < [9(x – 2)] / 9 ;

to get:

2x + 1 < x – 2 ; 

Now, subtract "x" and add "2" to each side of the inequality:

2x + 1 – x + 2  <  x – 2  – x + 2 ;

to get:

x + 3 < 0 ;

Subtract "3" from EACH SIDE ;

x + 3 – 3 < 0 – 3 ;

to get:

      " x < -3 "  .

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,
