We have from Thales theorem that because the 2 triangles are similar, JM/JK=JN/JL. We have that JN=x, JL=x+24 and that JM=7 and JK=28. Substituting, we get:
x/(x+24)=7/28.
Hence, x/(x+24)=1/4. This leads to 4x=x+24, 3x=24, x=8. We have solved for x=JN and this is equal to 8.

Y = mx + c, m = slope , y intercept = c.
y = (1/2)x - 3
y intercept, c = -3
Answer:
b = 2 cm.
Step-by-step explanation:
A trapezoid is broken into a rectangle and a triangle. So, it is a right trapezoid.
The rectangle has a base of 8 centimeters and a height of 6 centimeters. The triangle has a base of 2 centimeters and a height of 6 centimeters.
Now, we are asked the length, b, of the base of the triangle.
It is clear from the given information that the base of the triangle is, b = 2 cm. (Answer)
