Answer:

NM = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given rectangle JKLM

JN = x + 3 and JL = 3x + 1

JN = 1/2JL as diagonals bisect each other and N is the midpoint of JL.

Substitute and solve for x:

x + 3 = 1/2(3x + 1)

2x + 6 = 3x + 1

3x - 2x = 6 - 1

x = 5

Find JN

JN = 5 + 3 = 8

Looking at the options, we see that

NM = JN = 8

Correct option is A

Plzz help and explain ur answer i might give brainliest

wariber [46]

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Determine if it is rational or irrational</u>

A number is rational if it terminates such as a whole number or a decimal number like 2.5

A number is irrational if it never terminates such as π which continues forever from 3.14....

Since there is a π in this question, that automatically makes this number irrational. Therefore, the answer is irrational.

Answer: Irrational
