Answer: JL = 25

Step-by-step explanation: Segment JM is the total measure of the line segment and it equals 45.

Suppose first segment JK measures d.

The total ratio is the sum of each part

d + 4d + 4d = 9d

The sum of each part corresponds to the total measure of the line segment. Then:

9d = 45

d = 5

Segment JL is

JL = d + 4d

JL = 5d

JL = 5.5

JL = 25

Segment JL measures 25 units.

(2x+5y-z)+(-6x-4y+7z)
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

-4x + y + 6z

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 5y - z + (-6x - 4y + 7z) < distribute positive 1 to (-6x - 4y + 7z)

2x + 5y - z - 6x - 4y + 7z < combine like terms to get the answer

2x - 6x = -4x

5y - 4y = y

-z + 7z = 6z

our new expression is:

-4x + y + 6z we cannot simplify this any further, so this is our answer
