Answer:
8/17
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct and complete question is:
<em>Use △XYZ, in which ∠X is a right angle and tanY=8/15. What is the ratio for sinY?</em>
From definition:
tan(Y) = opposite/adjacent
From the graph and the question:
tan(Y) = XZ/XY = 8/15
Then:
XZ = 8 and XY = 15. Using pytaghorean theorem:
XZ² + XY² = YZ²
8² + 15² = YZ²
√289 = YZ
17 = YZ
From definition:
sin(Y) = opposite/hypotenuse
From the graph:
sin(Y) = XZ/YZ
sin(Y)= 8/17
In case of dogs the value 10 is the minimum value. So all the values lie above 10. In total there were 100 dogs.
So for dogs, we can say number of dogs above the value of 10 pound are 100.
In case of Cats, 10 lies at the position of median. Median is the central value and 50% values lie above the median value. So number of cats with weight above 10 pound is 50.
Thus, we can conclude that there were 50 more dogs than the cats with weight over 10 pounds. So option C gives the correct answer.
What do you mean by find those numbers?
