Answer:

a. 12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale factor of ∆LMN to ∆XYZ = 2:5

To find length of side ZX, set the ratio of the corresponding sides of interest equal to the scale factor.

Thus:

ZX corresponds to NL = 5

NL:ZX = 2:5

5:ZX = 2:5

5/ZX = 2/5

Cross multiply

5*5 = ZX*2

25 = ZX*2

Divide both sides by 2

25/2 = ZX

12.5 = ZX

ZX = 12.5

Find the slope of a line parallel to this given line

dybincka [34]

bearing in mind that parallel lines have the same exact slope, then any parallel line to the one above will have the same slope as that one.

$\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array} \qquad \implies y = \stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{-\cfrac{7}{3}}x-4$
