Since K is the midpoint of JL, it divides the segment JL into two equal halves.
That means    ⇒  JK = KL
Substitute expressions for the parts ⇒ 7x + 4 = 12x - 21
Now solve the equation:                        7x - 7x + 4 = 12x - 7x - 21
                                                                              4 = 5x - 21
                                                                       4 + 21 = 5x - 21 + 21
                                                                             
25 = 5x  
                                                                                5 = x
Substitute the value into one of the expressions: JK = 7(5) + 4 = 39
JL = JK + KL
JL = 39 + 39 = 78

PLEASE HELP URGENTTT
Margaret [11]

Answer: g^2+2g+1

Step-by-step explanation: Since she wants each side to be 1 inch larger, each side has a length of g+1. You need to find the area by squaring (g+1).

Write this as (g+1)(g+1). Use the FOIL method to get g^2+g+g+1. Simplify this to g^2+2g+1.
