7/8, One should first make all the fractions have the same denominator so 3/8 and 1/2=4/8 so then add 3/8+4/8=7/8

It would be 1/2 because 8 is the common denominator and 3+1=4 and 4/8 could be simplified to 1/2

Doss [256]

The reflection of BC over I is shown below.

<h3>What is reflection?</h3>
  • A reflection is a mapping from a Euclidean space to itself that is an isometry with a hyperplane as a set of fixed points; this set is known as the reflection's axis (in dimension 2) or plane (in dimension 3).
  • A figure's mirror image in the axis or plane of reflection is its image by reflection.

See the attached figure for a better explanation:

1. By the unique line postulate, you can draw only one line segment: BC

  • Since only one line can be drawn between two distinct points.

2. Using the definition of reflection, reflect BC over l.

  • To find the line segment which reflects BC over l, we will use the definition of reflection.

3. By the definition of reflection, C is the image of itself and A is the image of B.

  • Definition of reflection says the figure about a line is transformed to form the mirror image.
  • Now, the CD is the perpendicular bisector of AB so A and B are equidistant from D forming a mirror image of each other.

4. Since reflections preserve length, AC = BC

  • In Reflection the figure is transformed to form a mirror image.
  • Hence the length will be preserved in case of reflection.

Therefore, the reflection of BC over I is shown.

A reflecting pool is shaped like a right triangle with one leg along the wall of a building. the hypotenuse is 9 feet longer tha
morpeh [17]

Answer:

Leg side along the wall = x ft = 8 ft

The other leg side = 7+x ft = 7+8=15 ft

The Hypotenuse =9+x ft = 9+8 = 17 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, the shape of the pool is right triangle.

Let the leg side along the wall to be the x ft

Let the other leg side  to be 7+x ft

Let the longest side/hypotenuse to be x+9 ft

Apply the Pythagorean relationship where the sum of squares of the legs equals the square of the hypotenuse

This means;

x^2 +(x+7)^2=(x+9)^2\\\\

Expand the terms in brackets

x^2+(x+7)^2=(x+9)^2\\\\\\x^2+x^2+14x+49=x^2+18x+81

collect like terms

x^2+x^2-x^2=18x-14x+81-49\\\\\\x^2=4x+32\\\\\\x^2-4x-32=0

solve for x in the quadratic equation by factorization

x^2-4x-32=0\\\\\\x^2-8x+4x-32=0\\\\\\x(x-8)+4(x-8)=0\\\\\\(x+4)(x-8)=0\\\\\\x+4=0,x=-4\\\\x-8=0,x=8

Taking the positive value of x;

x=8ft

Finding the lengths

Leg side along the wall = x ft = 8 ft

The other leg side = 7+x ft = 7+8=15 ft

The Hypotenuse =9+x ft = 9+8 = 17 ft
