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 :)

Lyndon should spend $38.05 or more to get a free T-shirt.

We have to find the statement best represents all of the amounts he can spend to get a free T-shirt

Suppose that the amount Lyndon get free T shirt is x.

Given that a clothing store offers a free T-shirt when a customer spends $75 or more.

Lyndon has already spent $36.95.

$x+36.95\geq 75$

To find the value of x,

Solve above inequality

$x\geq 75-36.95$

$x\geq 38.05$

Therefore,

Lyndon should spend $38.05 or more to get a free T-shirt
