Answer:

<h2>JL is 70 units long.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

  • K is the midpoint of JL. Where JL = 11x + 26.
  • JK = KL by midpoint definition.
  • JK = 9x - 1  by given.
  • KL = 2x + 27 by given.

Replacing each expression, we have

JK = KL

9x - 1 = 2x + 27

9x - 2x = 27 + 1

7x = 28

x = 28/7

x = 4

Replacing this value in JL expression.

JL = 11x + 26

JL = 11(4) + 26

JL = 44 + 26

JL = 70 units.

Therefore, JL is 70 units long.

Answer:

JL = 70

Step-by-step explanation:

Since K is the midpoint of JL then JK = KL and

JL = JK + KL = 9x - 1 + 2x + 27 = 11x + 26

solve for x using JK = KL

9x - 1 = 2x + 27 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

7x - 1 = 27 ( add 1 to both sides )

7x = 28 ( divide both sides by 7 )

x = 4, hence

JL = 11x + 26 = (11 × 4 ) + 26 = 44 + 26 = 70

9. Which of the following is the value of x in the solution to the
vladimir1956 [14]

Hi there,

9. Which of the following is the value of x in the solution to the

system of equations given below?

8 + 2x = 5y  (1)

4x - y = 2  (2)

▪ (1)

y = ( 8 + 2x ) ÷ 5

▪ (2)

4x - [( 8 + 2x ) ÷ 5] = 2

( 20x - 8 - 2x ) ÷ 5 = 2

20x - 8 - 2x = 2 × 5

20x - 2x = ( 2 × 5 ) + 8

18x = 10 + 8

18x = 18

x = 18 ÷ 18

x = 1

The answer is : A. 1

3. Consider the following information.P(Z) = 0.73P(A) = 0.25P(Z and A) = 0.15Part A: Determine P(Z|A).Part B: Determine P(AZ).I
krok68 [10]

Ok, so:

For Part A, we have: P(Z|A)=P(Z and A)/P(A)

And if we replace, we got:

P(Z|A) = (0.15)/(0.25) and this is equal to 0.6.

For Part B, we have: P(A|Z)=P(Z and A)/P(Z)

P(A|Z) = (0.15)/(0.73) and this is equal to 0.205.
