JK + KL = JL
JK = 2x, KL = x + 2, JL = 5x - 10
therefore we heve the equation:
2x + (x + 2) = 5x - 10
3x + 2 = 5x - 10 |-2
3x = 5x - 12 |-5x
-2x = -12 |:(-2)
x = 6
JK = 2x → JK = 2(6) = 12
KL = x + 2 → KL = 6 + 2 = 8
JL = 5x - 10 → JL = 5(6) - 10 = 30 - 10 = 20
Check:
JK + KL = JL
12 + 8 = 20 CORRECT :)
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
The exponents can only be added if the bases are the same
Here one base is 12 and the other is 11
So the rule of addition is not applicable.
Answer:
Well, I'm not sure what you mean but Ptolemy's Theorem gives a relationship between the side lengths and the diagonals of a cyclic quadrilateral; it is the equality case of Ptolemy's Inequality. Ptolemy's Theorem frequently shows up as an intermediate step in problems involving inscribed figures.
Negative since the answer would be -13
To get from −8 − 8 to the answer you really want, just take the absolute value! That is, to find the distance between<span> any </span>two<span> real numbers: subtract them in any order</span>
