Simplify -7 1/8 - -9 1/2. (10 points) select one: a. -2 3/8 b. -16 5/8 c. 16 5/8 d. 2 3/8

answer: the proof is mentioned below.

step-by-step explanation:

since, given:   lines bc = ef

prove:   lines ac > ef

          statements                                           reason

1. bc=ef                                           1. given

2. ac= ab+bc                                 2. because b is the point between the  

                                                            line segment ac

3.   ac > bc                                       3. because if a line segment is equal to

                                                          the sum of two line segments then it is

                                                          always greater then each of these

                                                          individual line segments

4. ac > ef                                         4. by equality property.

you can not solvr this without numbers

i don't know i don't know

we would need a picture of the quadrilateral in order to answer the question. also, it seems that the question is missing some components.
