<h3>Answer:  62</h3>

Explanation:

K is the midpoint of segment JL

That means the smaller pieces JK and KL are the same length.

JK = KL

9x-5 = 7x+3

9x-7x = 3+5

2x = 8

x = 8/2

x = 4

This x value leads us to:

  • JK = 9x-5 = 9*4-5 = 36-5 = 31
  • KL = 7x+3 = 7*4+3 = 28+3 = 31

Both smaller pieces are 31 units each, which helps confirm we have the correct x value.

Therefore, JL = JK+KL = 31+31 = 62

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (4, 6) and is parallel to the line 2y - 4x = 1?
Cloud [144]

Answer:

D. y = 2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, find the slope of the given line. Place it in slope-intercept form to identify its slope easily. Isolate the y in the equation:

2y-4x = 1\\2y = 4x+1\\y = 2x+\frac{1}{2}

A line placed in slope-intercept form is represented by the formula y = mx + b. The m, or the coefficient of the x-term, represents the slope. Thus, the slope of this line is 2.

2) Lines that are parallel share the same slope. So, the slope of the parallel line will have 2 as its slope as well.

We now have enough information to write the equation of the line in point-slope form. From there, we can convert it to slope-intercept form and find out which option is correct.

Use the point-slope formula y-y_1 = m (x-x_1) and substitute values for m, x_1, and y_1. Since m represents the slope of the line, substitute 2 in its place. Since x_1 and y_1 represent the x and y values of a point the line intersects, substitute the x and y values of (4,6) into the formula as well. Then, with the resulting equation, isolate y like before to find which option is correct:

y-6 = 2(x-4)\\y-6 = 2x-8\\y = 2x-2

So, option D is correct.
