To find the answer, we need to first understand the feature of similar triangle, where the sides of two triangle would be of the same ratio.

In this case, the equation that can be set to show that they have the same ratio:

MN/ON = LM/OP

LM and OP are used to find the ratio as they are given.

MN/12 = 42/14

MN = (42/14) x 12

MN = 36cm

Therefore, the answe is 36cm.

Hope it helps!

insens350 [35]

Answer:

D. y = 2x² + 1

E. y = x²

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear function:

A linear function has the following format:

$y = ax + b$

In which a is the slope and b is the y-intercept. A constant function is linear, as it is the special case in which a = 0.

In this question:

In options D and E, the highest exponent of x is 2, which means that they are not linear functions, and so these options are the answer.

Factor trinomial x^2n+10x^n+16

iragen [17]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{x^{2n}+10x^n+16=(x^n+2)(x^n+8)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Use}\ (a^n)^m=a^{nm}.\\\\x^{2n}+10x^n+16=(x^n)^2+10x^n+16=x^n\cdot x^n+2x^n+8x^n+16\\\\=x^n(x^n+2)+8(x^n+2)=(x^n+2)(x^n+8)$
