ANSWER

\text{The final estimate for the expression is }\frac{11}{24}

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION

Given information

\text{Estimate }\frac{10}{12}\text{ - }\frac{3}{8}

To estimate the above expression, we need to find the factors of the denominators to get the LCM

Factors of 12 = 2 x 2 x 3

Factors of 8 = 2 x 2 x 2

From the above factors, the LCM is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 24

Therefore, LCM is 24

\begin{gathered} \frac{\frac{10}{12}\text{ - }\frac{3}{8}}{24} \\  \\ =\text{ }\frac{\text{ 24(}\frac{10}{12})\text{ - 24(}\frac{3}{8})}{24} \\  \\ =\text{ }\frac{2(10)\text{ - 3(3)}}{24} \\ =\frac{20\text{ - 9}}{24} \\ =\text{ }\frac{11}{24} \end{gathered}

Draw the line of reflection that reflects quadrilateral ABCD onto quadrilateral A'B'C'D'
MArishka [77]

The two points are (-4, -2) and (4, 5) and the equation of the line is 8y = 7x + 12 passing through the two points.

<h3>What is geometric transformation?</h3>

It is defined as the change in coordinates and the shape of the geometrical body. It is also referred to as a two-dimensional transformation. In the geometric transformation, changes in the geometry can be possible by rotation, translation, reflection, and glide translation.

We have a quadrilateral ABCD which is reflected over a line and formed a mirror image A'B'C'D' of the quadrilateral.

From the graph:

The two points are (-4, -2) and (4, 5)

The line equation passing through two points:

[y - 5] = (5+2)/(4+4)[x - 4]

y - 5 = 7/8[x - 4]

8y - 40 = 7x - 28

8y = 7x + 12

Thus, the two points are (-4, -2) and (4, 5) and the equation of the line is 8y = 7x + 12 passing through the two points.

Is 3/4 equivalent to 12/15
Readme [11.4K]
For this, you have to reduce the larger fraction, which is 12/15
After reduction, it would be: 4/5 which is not equivalent to 3/4

4/5 ≠ 3/4

So, your final answer is "NO", it's not equivalent 

Hope this helps!

What is the congruence correspondence, if any, that will prove the given triangles congruent?
ladessa [460]

Answer:

C. HL

Step-by-step explanation:

The two triangles shown are right triangles.

The hypotenuse of one is congruent to the hypotenuse of the other. Also, the length of one of the legs of one triangle is congruent to the corresponding leg of the other triangle.

Based on true HL Congruence theorem, both triangles are congruent to each other.

Therefore, the congruence correspondence that will prove both triangles are congruent is: HL
