Answer:

$MN=9.8\ m$

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

we know that

The <u><em>Triangle Midpoint Theorem</em></u> states that the segment joining two sides of a triangle at the midpoints of those sides is parallel to the third side and is half the length of the third side.

In this problem

Point N is the midpoint segment JL and the point M is the midpoint segment KL

The segment MN is joining two sides of a triangle at the midpoints of those sides

therefore

MN is parallel to side JK and is half the length of JK

$MN=\frac{1}{2}JK$

we have

$JK=19.6\ m$

substitute

$MN=\frac{1}{2}(19.6)=9.8\ m$

Jarrett's puppy weighed 3 3/4 ounces at Birth. At 1 week old, the puppy weighed 5 1/8 ounces. At 2 weeks old, the puppy weighed

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer: The answer is $7\dfrac{7}{8}$ ounces.

Step-by-step explanation: Given in the question the weight of Jarrett's puppy at birth, one week old and 2 weeks old are as follows:

$b_0=3\dfrac{3}{4}=\dfrac{15}{4}~\textup{ounces},\\\\\\b_1=5\dfrac{1}{8}=\dfrac{41}{8}~\textup{ounces},\\\\\\b_3=6\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{13}{2}~\textup{ounces}.$
