Answer:

In a 24 pack of soda, 1/8 would be 3 cans (24/8 = 3). 1/12 would be 2 cans (24/12=2).

So 3/8 is 9 cans of soda and 5/12 is 10 cans of soda, so they are not equivalent because the number of soda cans is not the same.

Find mMK................

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

Approximately mMK is 53 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the length of MK

As we can see, we have a right triangle at LNK

let us find the angle at L first

9 is adjacent to the angle at L and also, 15 is the hypotenuse of the angle at L

so the trigonometric identity that connects adjacent to the hypotenuse is the cosine

It is the ratio of the adjacent to the hypotenuse

So;

cos L = 9/15

L = arc cos (9/15)

L = 53.13 degree

Approximately, L = 53 degrees

so now, we want to get the arc length MK

We are to use the angle-arc relationship here

Using this; arc length MK is equal to the measure of L at the center which is 53 degrees
