We cannot deduce about the exact location of P between J and K. But we can conclude: segment JP + segment PK = line JK.
JP + PK = JK.
Substitute first each.
(8z - 17) + (5z + 37) = 17z - 4
Combine like terms.
13z + 20 = 17z - 4
Isolate the variable z.
4z = 24
z = 6
The value of the variable z is then 6 units.

06. Kristen can run at 15km/hr and walk at 5 km/hr. She completed a 42 km marathon in 4 hours. What distance did Kristen run dur

Mrac [35]

Let x be the time she ran and y be the time she walked

then distance ran = 25x and distance walked = 5y

so 15x + 5y = 42

and x + y = 4

* second equn. by -5:-

-5x - 5y = -20

add this to the first equn:0

10x = 22
x = 2.2

distance she ran = 2.2 * 15 = 33 km
