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

mamaluj [8]

1) Given m represent the total number of miles Hannah walked.

Let us assume Hannah walked x miles each day.

So total number of miles Hannah walked in 5 days is m=5x.

2)Given Jimmy brought 2 books per day and Peter brought 4 books per day.

If d is the number of days the book drive, total number of books they brought

=total number books brought by Jimmy+ total number of books brought by Peter

= 2d+4d = 6d

3) Given that c represent cost of the clothes.

Then 30% discount = 0.3c

Hence cost of the clothes = c-0.3c = 0.7c

4) Given c represent the cost of their meal before tipping.

And tip is 15% of the cost.

Hence tip = 0.15c

Hence total bill = c+0.15c=1.15c

5) Given that Tommy had 40$ in his pocket.

And pair of pants cost 37$ with 10% sales tax.

Hence cost of pants including sales tax = 37+37*0.1 = 40.1$ >40$

Hence Tommy cannot afford the pants with 40$ in his pocket.

For following problems, we should group the like terms together and then simplify.

6) (x+8)+(3x-12) = (x+3x)+8-12 = 4x-4

7) 5x+7-(3x-4) = 5x+7-3x+4 = (5x-3x)+7+4 = 2x+11

8) (x-2)-(-4x+1)=x-2+4x-1 = (x+4x)-2-1 = 5x-3
