Answer:

D. 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the missing length be represented as x.

Thus:

(24 - x)/12 = x/20 => angle bisector theorem

Cross multiply

20(24 - x) = x(12)

480 - 20x = 12x

480 - 20x + 20x = 12x + 20x

480 = 32x

480/32 = 32x/32

15 = x

Missing length = x = 15

Which mathematical equation represents the solution for k in the equation h + 3 = jk + 6k ?

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The answer is<u> D.</u> h+3/j+6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The equation h + 3 = jk + 6k.

Now, to get the mathematical expression.

$h + 3 = jk + 6k$

So, taking $k$ common on R.H.S we get:

$h + 3 = k(j + 6)$

Then, dividing both sides by $j+6$ we get:

$\frac{h+3}{j+6} =k$

Thus,

$k=\frac{h+3}{j+6}$

Therefore, the answer is D. h+3/j+6.
