Answer: The length of JF = 16 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: In triangle DEF, segment DJ is a perpendicular bisector of side EF.
i.e. DJ is perpendicular to EF and DJ divides EF into two equal parts EJ and JF. [The perpendicular bisector is a line that is perpendicular to a line segment and splits it into two congruent segments.]
If EJ is 3y-8 and JF is 7y-40.
Then,
JF= 7(8)-40 =56-40= 16 units
Hence, the length of JF = 16 units.
