I need help finding the x

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sati [7]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

x = 1/2 or .5

Step-by-step explanation:

JK = 7x + 2, KL = 5x + 4 and JL = 12

JK + KL = JL

Plug in the equations for the Lines

7x + 2 + 5x + 4 = 12

Combine like-terms

12x + 2 + 4 = 12

12x + 6 = 12

Subtract 6 from either side

12x + 6 = 12

      -6      -6

12x = 6

Divide either side by 12

12x / 12 = 6/ 12

x= 1/2 or .5

Answer:

1. (n + 3)(5n + 8)

2. (x - 4)(7x - 4)

3. (k + 8)(7k + 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We have to factorize 5n² + 23n + 24.

Now, 5n² + 23n + 24

= 5n² + 15n + 8n + 24

= 5n (n + 3) + 8 (n + 3)

=(n + 3)(5n + 8) (Answer)

2. We have to factorize 7x² - 32x + 16

Now,  7x² - 32x + 16

= 7x² - 28x - 4x + 16

= 7x (x - 4) - 4 (x - 4)

= (x - 4)(7x - 4) (Answer)

3. We have to factorize 7k² + 57k + 8

Now, 7k² + 57k + 8

= 7k² + 56k + k + 8

= 7k (k + 8) + 1 (k + 8)

= (k + 8)(7k + 1) (Answer)
