Answer:

x = 26; l = 137; m = 137

Step-by-step explanation:

If the lines are parallel, that means the measurements are too. As such, equal the two expressions together

5x + 7 = 8x - 71

add 71 to both sides

5x + 7 + 71 = 8x - 71 + 71

-71 and +71 cancel each other out

5x + 78 = 8x

subtract 5x from both sides

5x - 5x + 78 = 8x - 5x

5x - 5x cancels each other out

78 = 3x

divide both sides by 3

3x ÷ 3 = 1x which can also be written as just x

78 ÷ 3 = x

26 = x

plug in this x value into both expressions to find variables l and m

l:

5(26) + 7

130 + 7

137

m:

8(26) - 71

208 - 71

137
