Answer:
JL = 78
Step-by-step explanation:
MN is a midsegment. Based on the midsegment theorem,
MN = ½(JL)
MN = 5x - 16
JL = 4x + 34
Plug in the value
5x - 16 = ½(4x + 34)
5x - 16 = ½*4x + ½*34
5x - 16 = 2x + 17
Collect like terms
5x - 2x = 16 + 17
3x = 33
Divide both sides by 3
x = 11
✔️JL = 4x + 34
Plug in the value of x
JL = 4(11) + 34
JL = 44 + 34
JL = 78
I believe it is 8,000 grams :).
