<span>We cannot deduce about the exact location of P between J and K. But we can conclude: segment JP + segment PK = line JK.
</span><span>JP + PK = JK.
</span><span>Substitute first each.
(8z - 17) + (5z + 37) = 17z - 4
Combine like terms.
13z + 20 = 17z - 4
Isolate the variable z.
4z = 24
z = 6
The value of the variable z is then 6 units.</span>
