Answer:
JL = 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that K is on line segment JL, therefore:
KL + JK = JL (according to segment addition postulate)
KL = 2x - 2
JK = 5x + 2
JL = 4x + 9
Thus:

Solve for x



Subtract 4x from both sides


Divide both sides by 3


Find the numerical length of JL

Plug in the value of x

The next one is 16 probably
Answer:
13 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
a = 2 and b = -3
so the question asks whats.... a^3 - b^3/5
First we plug in the values of a and b
(2)^3 - (-3)^3 /5
Now we solve the ones in paranthesis first
(2)^3 = 8 because 2×2×2 and
-(-3)^3 forget about the - outside the parenthesis so
(-3)^3 = (-27) because (-3)×(-3)×(-3)
now we put it back together
8 -(-27)/5
the two minus become plus so
8 + 27/5
Now we solve it like fractions
8 and 27/5
simplify
13 and 2/5
Hope that helps!
