Answer:
<h2>x = 4</h2><h2>JT = 18</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Given three points J, C and T on a line, if J is between C and T then;
CJ + JT = CT.
Given CJ=8x+5, CT=55, and JT=4x+2, substituting this parameters in the equation above will give;

SInce JT = 4x+2

Minus 3y both sides
2y-6=-20
add 6 to both sids
2y=-14
divide 2
y=-7

You then would eliminate 6, by adding 6 to both sides

Then you want all of the X's on the same side, so you subtract 2x from both sides.

Then to isolate the X, you divide by 2

The answer is x=2
