Question

Question 18

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

J and K are equal

8x - 23 = 6x + 11            Add 23 to both sides

8x = 6x + 11 + 23           Combine the right

8x = 6x + 34                  Subtract 6x from both sides

8x - 6x = 34                   Combine the left

2x = 34                           Divide by 2

x = 34/2

x = 17

=================================

M and L are both supplementary to J and K respectively.

J = 8x - 23

J = 8*17 - 23

J = 136-23

J = 113

K = 113

===================================

M + 113 = 180

M = 180 - 113

M = 67

L = 67
