Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation: 2(4x+6)=
\,\,34-3x
34−3x
Since HJ is a midsegment, twice HJ is equal to EG.
8x+12=
8x+12=
\,\,34-3x
34−3x
Distribute.
8x+12=
8x+12=
\,\,-3x+34
−3x+34
Communicative property to change the order
\color{red}{+3x}\phantom{+12}\phantom{=}
+3x+12=
\,\,\color{red}{+3x}\phantom{+34}
+3x+34
+3x to both sides.
11x+12=
11x+12=
\,\,34
34
\phantom{11x}\color{red}{-12}\phantom{=}
11x−12=
\,\,\color{red}{-12}
−12
-12 to both sides.
11x=
11x=
\,\,22
22
\frac{11x}{11}=
11
11x
=
\,\,\frac{22}{11}
11
22
Divide both sides by 11
x=

HJ=
\,\,4x+6
4x+6
Value of HJ
HJ=
HJ=
\,\,4(2)+6
4(2)+6
Plug in x.
HJ=
HJ=
\,\,8+6
8+6
Multiply.
HJ=
HJ=
\,\,14

I believe the answer is about 78.81% because you subtract 25 from 118. Then that would be 93. 118 is equal to the 100% and 118 divide by 1.18 equals 100. Divide 93 from 1.18 gives you the answer
