The value of x is 2 and the length of JK is 4
<h3>How to solve the unknown variables?</h3>
The given parameters from the circle are:
- Center = Point S
- Segment JK = 8
- Segment LK = 2x + 4
- Congruent SN = SP = 7
The lines SR and SQ are the radii of the circle P
This means that lines JK and JL are congruent
So, we have:
JK = KL
Substitute LK = 2x + 4 and JK = 4
4 = 2x + 4
Rewrite the above equation as:
2x + 4 = 8
Subtract 4 from both sides
2x + 4 - 4 = 8 - 4
Evaluate the difference
2x = 4
Divide both sides by 2
2x = 4/2
This gives
x = 2
Substitute x = 2 in LK = 2x + 4
LK = 2*2 + 4
Evaluate the product of 2 and 2
LK = 4 + 4
This gives
LK = 8
The point N divides JK into 2 equal segments
So, we have
JN = JK/2
JN= 8/2
JN = 4
Hence, the value of x is 2 and the length of JK is 4

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
ok ok ok ok ok ok
The answer is A) x = 6
<span>3(4x-3) - 19 = 8x-4
12 x - 9 - 19 = 8x - 4
12x - 8x = -4 + 9 + 19
4x = 24
4x / 4 = 24 / 4
x = 6</span>
Answer:
The slope or m is 2
Explanation:
The full answer is y = 2x + 4/3
Slope being 2 as y = mx + b
And the slope is m
