J is the midpoint of HK¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ . What are HJ, JK, and HK?

Since J is the midpoint of HK, that means HK is split into two sections HJ and JK that are the same length.

1) You are told that the m<span>easure of segment HJ = 9x-2 and that of segment JK = 4x+13. Since you also know they are equal lengths, you can set these equations equal to each other to find the value of x!
HJ = JK
</span>9x-2 = 4x+13
5x = 15
x = 3

2) Now you know x = 3. Plug that into your given equations for HJ and JK to find the length of each segment (or a shortcut would be to find one of them, and then you also know the other is the same length. I'm doing both, just to make sure I don't make a silly mistake!):
HJ = <span>9x-2 
</span>HJ = 9(3) - 2
HJ = 27 - 2
HJ = 25

JK = 4x + 13
JK = 4(3) + 13
JK = 12 + 13
JK = 25

3) Finally, the length of HK is just the length of HJ + JK, or HK = 25 + 25 = 50.

-----

Answer: HJ = 25, JK = 25, HK = 50

WILL GIVE ALL MY POINTS working alone, machine a takes 2 hours to build a car, working alone machine b takes 3 hours to build a
kati45 [8]

Answer:

It will take Machine A 20 additional minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have get the rate of work per hour, Machine A builds 1/2 of a car per hour, while Machine B builds 1/3 of a car per hour.

Using this we can determine the amount of work that has been done so far in one hour before Machine B broke down:

1/2 + 1/3 = 3/6 + 2/6 = 5/6

Now we can produce an equation accordingly to determine how much time it'll take machine a to finish the job:

5/6 + 1/2x = 1

1/2x = 1/6

x = 1/3 hours = 20 minutes

Note: In the question you typed "how much additional time will it take machine b to finish" but I think you meant machine a because machine b broke down. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Hope this helps! And let me know if you have any questions!

Hello! I graduated in 2008 but forgot how to solve multiplication. It's been so long. However I want to be refreshed on solving
Anettt [7]
To do this you first have to set this up vertically.
First you multiply through with the 2 (44×2=88). Then next, you have to multiply through with the 1 (44×1=44) But since this is the second line, you have to add the 0 to the end (440).
Now you simply add 88+440=528.
