JK + KL = JL

JK = 2x, KL = x + 2, JL = 5x - 10

therefore we heve the equation:

2x + (x + 2) = 5x - 10

3x + 2 = 5x - 10 |-2

3x = 5x - 12 |-5x

-2x = -12 |:(-2)

x = 6

JK = 2x → JK = 2(6) = 12

KL = x + 2 → KL = 6 + 2 = 8

JL = 5x - 10 → JL = 5(6) - 10 = 30 - 10 = 20

Check:

JK + KL = JL

12 + 8 = 20 CORRECT :)

Twenty times the square of a non-zero number is equal to 20 times the number ! What is the number ?
Shkiper50 [21]
X-the number

20 · x² = 20 · x    |divide both sides by 20

x² = x    |subtract x from both sides

x² - x = 0

x(x - 1) = 0 ⇔ x =0 or x - 1 = 0

Answer: x = 0 or x = 1

Direct Variation: If y = 12, when x = 4, find y when x = 20. a.40 b.48 c.12 d.60
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

d

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the x and y are in direct variation then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use the condition y = 12 when x = 4, that is

12 = 4k ( divide both sides by 4 )

3 = k

y = 3k ← equation of variation

When x = 20 , then

y = 3 × 20 = 60 → d
