I am going to assume these are points across the same line. (line segments)

If so, then jk + kl = jl

If jk is 6x and kl is 3x, we can solve for x.

6x + 3x = 27 (note we subbed 27 in for jl)

9x = 27 (divide both sides by 9 to leave on x on the left)

x = 3

CHECK! sub 3 in for x in the original problem.

6 (3) + 3 (3) = 27

18 + 9 = 27

Yes! It checks. x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given.

$3x+5y=3$

$x+2y=0$

Take the second equation and subtract 2y to both sides.

$(x+2y)-2y=0-2y$

$x=-2y$

Substitute x into the first equation and simplify.

$3x+5y=3$

$3(-2y)+5y=3$

$-6y+5y=3$

$-y=3$

Invert.

$y=-3$

Substitute Y into your second equation.

$x+2y=0$

$x+2(-3)=0$

$x-6=0$

Add -6 to both sides.

$(x-6)+6=0+6$

$x=6$

(6, -3)
