If K is midpoint of JL then JK = 0.5JL
JL = 4x - 2; JK = 7
The equation:
0.5(4x - 2) = 7
2x - 1 = 7 |add 1 to both sides
2x = 8 |divide both sides by 2
<u>x = 4</u>
<u>JL</u> = 4(4) - 2 = 16 - 2 = <u>14</u>
<u>KL</u> = JK =<u> 7</u>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Expression on the board :</u>

<u>Expression by the student </u>:
<em><u> Expression 1 </u></em>:

The expression 1 is equivalent to the expression on the board. Because the coefficients of x and y are same on both.
<em><u>Expression 2 :</u></em>
<em><u /></em>
<em><u /></em>
The expression 2 is also equivalent to the expression on the board. Because the coefficients of x and y are the same.
