X-intercept is (-6, 0) , (3, 0)
The value of x is 6, then the value of JK is 83, KL is 83 and JL is 83.
<h3>What is a triangle?</h3>
A triangle is a polygon that has three sides and three vertices. It is one of the basic figures in geometry.
An equilateral triangle is a shape with three sides that have an equal measure of side length.
The 3 sides of triangle JKL are equal to each other, therefore we can equate any of the two sides together to find the unknown variable called x.
So, JK = KL
JK = 13x + 5
KL + 17x - 19
13x + 5 = 17x - 19
Collect like terms;
17x - 13x = 19 + 5
4x = 24
x = 24/4
x = 6
We can now proceed to find the sides;
JK = 13x + 5
13 x 6 + 5
= 78 + 5
= 83
JK = 83
KL = 17x - 19
= 17 x 6 - 19
= 102 - 19
= 83
KL = 83
JL= 8x + 35
= 8 x 6 + 35
= 48 + 35
= 83
JL = 83
Hence, The value of x is 6, then the value of JK is 83, KL is 83 and JL is 83.

X is Kevin; Y is Dan
X = 3Y
X - 4 = 5(Y - 4)
3Y - 4 = 5(Y - 4)
3Y - 4 = 5Y - 20
+ 4 +4
4 cancels each other out.
3Y = 5Y - 16
- 5 -5
5 cancels each other out.
-2Y = -16
/2 /2
Y = 8
X = 3Y;
X = 3 x 8;
Thus,
X = 24;
Kevin(x) is 24
