7 0

Step-by-step explanation:

we start first by finding the gradient of the line

change in y/change in x

7-(-1)/3-7=8/-4

=-2

then for perpendicular lines m1m2=-1

therefore to find the gradient of that line

-2m2=-1

therefore m2=2

so therefore

y-5/x-3=2

so y-5=2x-6

y-2x=-1

in the form y= mx +c

then y=2x-1

Points J and K are midpoints of the sides of triangle FGH. Triangle F G H is cut by lines segment J K. Point J is the midpoint o
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Value of y = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

By the midpoint theorem of the triangles,

"Segment joining midpoints of the two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and measure half the length of the third side."

Therefore, from the figure attached,

In ΔFGH,

J and K are the mid points of the two sides GH and FH.

By theorem, segment JK║GF and m(JK) = \frac{1}{2}m(FG)

(2y+5)=\frac{1}{2}(5y+3)

(5y + 3) = 2(2y + 5)

5y + 3 = 4y + 10

5y - 4y = 10 - 3

y = 7
