Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The Trapezoid Mid-segment Theorem states that : A line connecting the midpoints of the two legs of a trapezoid is parallel to the bases, and its length is equal to half the sum of lengths of the bases

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

EF is the mid-segment of trapezoid

EF is parallel to AB and is parallel to CD

EF=(AB+CD)/2

The mid-segment of a trapezoid is always parallel to each base

therefore

The statement is true

You have a shelf that holds 25 1/2 pounds. What is the most number of 1 1/4 pound books that the shelf can hold?

patriot [66]

Answer:

20 books

Step-by-step explanation:

given that the shelf can hold 25 1/2 lbs (i.e 25.5 lbs), and that each book weighs 1 1/4 ln (i.e 1.25 lbs)

number of books which the shelf can hold

= weight that the shelf can hold ÷ weight of each book

= 25.5 ÷ 1.25

= 20.4 books

because having 0.4 of a book (i.e part of a book) would not be very feasable, we have to round the number of books down to the nearest whole number)

20.4 books rounded down to nearest whole number = 20 books (answer)

You borrow $500 to buy a computer. The simple interest rate is 15%. You pay off the loan after 4 years. How much do you pay for

GREYUIT [131]

Its $800 because to find interest u can use the formula I=PRT p is principal which is 500 times r which is rate-15/100(=15%) times 4

so the interest is 500×15/100×4=300
then u add 300 to 500 because the interest adds more money to the loan
