Answer:

The measure of MN is 21 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that △ABC∼△LMN.

The corresponding sides of two similar triangles are proportional.

\frac{AB}{LM}=\frac{BC}{MN}

\frac{8}{12}=\frac{14}{MN}

8\times MN=14\times 12

Divide both sides by 8.

MN=\frac{168}{8}

MN=21

Therefore we can say that if △ABC∼△LMN, then the measure of MN is 21 inches.

AB/LM = BC/MN

8/12 = 14/MN

8(MN) = 12 * 14

8(MN) = 168

MN = 168/8

MN = 21 Hope this helps and please mark as brainliest!

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (2, 8) and (6, 12)?
zubka84 [21]
Yeah, where I live, to find the slope (or as we call it, the gradient), you just have to do the two y values subtracted from each other, over the two x values subtracted from each other. The important thing is to remember that if you subtract the first y value from the second (so, 12 - 8), you have to do the same thing for the x (6 - 2)

\frac{12-8}{6-2} = \frac{4}{4} = 1.

The slope is 1.

Take logs of both sides:-

ln 625^x = ln 5

x * ln 0.625 = ln 5

x = ln 5 / ln 625
