Answer:

JK = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

JK = 2x

IJ = 5x

IK = x + 6

Required

Solve for JK.

Since J is on IK, we have:

IK = IJ + JK

x + 6 = 5x + 2x

x + 6 = 7x

Collect Like Terms

7x - x = 6

6x = 6

Solve for x

x = 6/6

x = 1

Substitute 1 for x in JK = 2x

JK = 2 * 1

JK = 2

Order these from least to greatest 3 39/40 , 3 19/20 , 3 1/2
Lera25 [3.4K]

Hey!

First change all the fractions so that they have a common denominator: 40

3 \frac{39}{40} = 3 \frac{39}{40}

3 \frac{19 \times 2}{20 \times 2} = 3 \frac{38}{40}

3 \frac{1 \times 20}{2 \times 20} = 3 \frac{20}{40}

Now order them:

3 \frac{39}{40} , 3 \frac{19}{20} , 3 \frac{1}{2}

Good luck and hope this helps! :)
