Answer:   The slopes of two parallel lines are equal.


Step-by-step explanation: Let m_{1} and m_{2} be the slopes of lines AB and MN respectively. We know that if the slopes of two parallel lines are equal, then the lines must be parallel. Thus, if we get           m_{1}=m_{2} , then AB is parallel to MN. Also, if we already have M and N as the mid-points of AC and BC, the with the help of slopes of AB and MN, we arrive at our proof that MN is the mid-segment of Triangle ABC. Please see the figure for details.

Mid-segment and bottom side of the triangle is always parallel to each other, and parallel lines must have same slopes, so if their slopes are equal, then MN would be mid-segment of side AB in Triangle ABC

Hope this helps!

One scientific team determened that the avrage thickness of a chickens egg shell is 0.311 millimeters
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

As we can see the average for the thickness of a chickens egg shell is 0.311 mm and if we want to round this number to the nearest tenth we just need to see the second decimal place and round to one decimal place.

This second decimal place for this number is 1 and this number is \leq 5 so then if we round to the nesrest tenth we will get:

0.3 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the following info in order to complete the qeustion:

Round the thickness of the shell to the nearest tenth.

lauren wants to keep her cell phone bull under $60 per month. Her current cell phone plan is $30 per month plus $0.50 per text.
stellarik [79]

Answer:

The correct answer is t < 60.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lauren wants to keep her cell phone bill below $60 per month.

Lauren's current cellphone plan charges her a fixed price of $30 and per text price for one text is $0.50.

Let Lauren sends t texts in a complete month.

Total money spent on texts in a month is given by $ (0.50 × t)

Therefore Lauren's total spent in a month is given by $ (30 + (0.50 × t)).

But this amount should be under $60 as per as the given problem.

∴ 30 + (0.50 × t) < 60

⇒ (0.50 × t) < 30

⇒ t < \frac{30}{0.50}

⇒ t < 60.

So in order to keep her phone monthly bill under $60, Lauren should keep her number of texts below 60.
