Answer:

x = 2, HJ = JK = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that H is the midpoint of JK , then

HJ = JK = 6x - 1 and

HJ + JK = JK , that is

6x - 1 + 6x - 1 = 3x + 16 ← simplify left side

12x - 2 = 3x + 16 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

9x - 2 = 16 ( add 2 to both sides )

9x = 18 ( divide both sides by 9 )

x = 2

Then

HJ = JK = 6x - 1 = 6(2) - 1 = 12 - 1 = 11
