Answer:

x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

x+7=3x-5

add 5 to both sides

x+12=3x

subtract x from both sides

12=2x

divide by 2 on both sides

6=x

JK=2X KL=X+2 and JK=5X-10

elixir [45]

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 :)
