The information we know:

1 week = 134 inches

x = 714

What I did was, I divided 714 by 134 to find the amount of weeks:

$714/134 = 5.3$

So, from the equation, basically, in 6 weeks (actually 5.3 weeks) the plant will grow 714 inches long

We form a committee of 8 people, to be chosen from 15 women and 12 men. (a) How many possible committee can be formed

Using the combination formula, it is found that 2,220,075 committees can be formed.

The order in which the people are chosen is not important, hence, the <em>combination formula</em> is used to solve this question.

<h3>Combination formula: </h3>

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by:

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

In this problem, 8 people are chosen from a set of 12 + 15 = 27, hence:

$C_{27,8} = \frac{27!}{8!19!} = 2220075$

2,220,075 committees can be formed.

Answer:

$m\angle N=57^{\circ}$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the isosceles-base theorem, the measure of the angles adjacent to the pair of congruent sides of the triangle are equal. Since the problem declares $LM\cong LN$ , the remaining unknown angles are equal ( $m\angle N=m\angle M$ ). The sum of the interior angles of a triangle always add up to $180^{\circ}$$ .
