Given values:

GJ=4x+2

HK=6x-1

GK =37

Find:

HJ=?

GK = GJ+JK

     = GJ+(HK-HJ)

     = 4x+2+((6x-1)-x)

     = 4x+2+6x-1-x

     =  

9x+1...(a)

Solve equation (a) and put the value of x in the equation:

      =9(4)+1

       =36+1

       =37

find GH and JK=?

Given:

GK=37

Formula:  

GH = GJ-HJ

      = 4x+2- x

      = 3x+2....(b)

Solve equation (a):

GK= 9x+1

37=9x+1

36=9x

x=4....(c)

put the value of equation (b) in equation (c)

GH = 3x+2

      = 3(4)+2

      = 12+2

      = 14

Formula:

JK= HK-HJ

    = 6x-1- x

    = 5x-1

put the value of x in the above equation:

     = 5(4)-1

     = 20-1

     =19
