Using the segment addition postulate find the length of the segment EF

Mathematics
1 answer:
Step2247 [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm pretty sure the segment addition postulate just means that if you add JK and KL together, you'll get the length of JL. Correct me if I'm wrong...

Anyways, JK = 3x - 4, and KL = 5x + 6. If we add these together, according to the segment addition postulate, we will get JL, which equals 9x - 8. So, we set up an equation:

3x - 4 + 5x + 6 = 9x - 8

Simplifying this equation, we get:

8x + 2 = 9x - 8

x = 10

So, our answer is 10.

(also you ask for segment EF but I don't see segment EF so I'm going to just answer the question in the picture)

Can you help me solve systems of equations by elimination step by step<br> -5x+9y=-12<br> 3x+2y=22
Sergio039 [100]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

First solve -5x+9y=-12 for x:


-5x+9y=-12

-5x+9y-9y=-12-9y

-5x=-12-9

-5x=-9-12

-5x/-5=-9/5-12/-5

x=9/5y+12/6


Substitute x into an equation


3(-9/5y+12/6)+2y=22

37/5y+36/5=22

37/5y+36/5-36/5=22-36/5

37/5y=74/5

37/5y/37/5=74/5/37/5

y=2


Substitute y in x=-9/5y+12/6


9/5(2)+12/6

x=6


Solution Set: (6,2)
