Suppose J, K, L, M, N are points on the same line.
MK = MN + (-KN) = MN - KN = 9x - 11 - x - 3 = 8x - 14
Since LK = MK and LK = 7x - 10, then
7x - 10 = 8x - 14
8x - 7x = -10 + 14
x = 4
LJ = MK + KJ
MK = LK = 7x - 10 = 7(4) - 10 = 28 - 10 = 18
LJ = 18 + 28 = 46
Answer:
Here
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your equation step-by-step.
8−6(x−4)=2x−2(4x−5)+22
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
8−6(x−4)=2x−2(4x−5)+22
8+(−6)(x)+(−6)(−4)=2x+(−2)(4x)+(−2)(−5)+22(Distribute)
8+−6x+24=2x+−8x+10+22
(−6x)+(8+24)=(2x+−8x)+(10+22)(Combine Like Terms)
−6x+32=−6x+32
−6x+32=−6x+32
Step 2: Add 6x to both sides.
−6x+32+6x=−6x+32+6x
32=32
Step 3: Subtract 32 from both sides.
32−32=32−32
0=0
7/5 = 14/10 = 28/20
Numerator = x
Denominator = x-4
Add 3 to both:
x +3 / (x-4+3)
x+3 = 14
(x-4 +3) = 10 = x-1 = 10
x = 11
Check:
11 -4 = 7 ( denominator is 4 less than the numerator.)
add 3 to both:
11+3 = 14
7+3 = 10
14/10 reduces to 7/5
The original fraction would be 11/7
Yes because they are the same shape.
