The statement that line segments that have the same length are called similar segments is false

<h3>How to determine the true statement?</h3>

The statement is given as:

Line segments that have the same length are called similar segments.

As a general rule:

Line segments that have the same length are similar segments.

However, line segments that have the same length are not called similar segments

Instead, line segments that have the same length are called congruent lines

This means that the the statement that line segments that have the same length are called similar segments is false

Hence, the statement that line segments that have the same length are called similar segments is false

At 2:00 PM a car's speedometer reads 30 mi/h. At 2:10 PM it reads 50 mi/h. Show that at some time between 2:00 and 2:10 the acce

Daniel [21]

Answer: If we define 2:00pm as our 0 in time; then:

at t= 0. the velocity is 30 mi/h.

then at t = 10m (or 1/6 hours) the velocity is 50mi/h

Then, if we think in the "mean acceleration" as the slope between the two velocities, we can find the slope as:

a= (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (50 mi/h - 30 mi/h)/(1/6h - 0h) = 20*6mi/(h*h) = 120mi/ $h^{2}$

Now, this is the slope of the mean acceleration between t= 0h and t = 1/6h, then we can use the mean value theorem; who says that if F is a differentiable function on the interval (a,b), then exist at least one point c between a and b where F'(c) = (F(b) - F(a))/(b - a)

So if v is differentiable, then there is a time T between 0h and 1/6h where v(T) = 120mi/ $h^{2}$

Can anyone solve this? If so tell me and make sure u know what ur doing please

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of a line, you need to find the $\frac{rise}{run}$ between two points. I will be using the points (-3, 2) and (-1, -2).
