Points J and K are midpoints of the sides of triangle FGH. Triangle F G H is cut by lines segment J K. Point J is the midpoint o

f side G H. Point K is the midpoint of side H F. Line segments G J and J H are congruent. Line segments H K and K F are congruent. The Length of J K is 2 y + 5 and the length of G F is 5 y + 3.
What is the value of y?

Answer:

Value of y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

By the midpoint theorem of the triangles,

"Segment joining midpoints of the two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and measure half the length of the third side."

Therefore, from the figure attached,

In ΔFGH,

J and K are the mid points of the two sides GH and FH.

By theorem, segment JK║GF and m(JK) = \frac{1}{2}m(FG)

(2y+5)=\frac{1}{2}(5y+3)

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

5y + 3 = 4y + 10

5y - 4y = 10 - 3

y = 7

3x-6y=6 in function notation
JulijaS [17]
Subtract 3x from both sides:

-6y = -3x + 6

divide both sides by -6 to get y by itself:

y = 1/2x - 1

function notation is rewriting y as a function:

f(x) = 1/2x -1
