Since J is the midpoint of HK, that means HK is split into two sections HJ and JK that are the same length.
1) You are told that the m<span>easure of segment HJ = 9x-2 and that of segment JK = 4x+13. Since you also know they are equal lengths, you can set these equations equal to each other to find the value of x!
HJ = JK
</span>9x-2 = 4x+13
5x = 15
x = 3
2) Now you know x = 3. Plug that into your given equations for HJ and JK to find the length of each segment (or a shortcut would be to find one of them, and then you also know the other is the same length. I'm doing both, just to make sure I don't make a silly mistake!):
HJ = <span>9x-2
</span>HJ = 9(3) - 2
HJ = 27 - 2
HJ = 25
JK = 4x + 13
JK = 4(3) + 13
JK = 12 + 13
JK = 25
3) Finally, the length of HK is just the length of HJ + JK, or HK = 25 + 25 = 50.

Answer: HJ = 25, JK = 25, HK = 50

Option D. D has the matrix of constants [[12], [11], [4]].
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
With the given equations, we can form matrices to represent them.
The coefficients of x, y, and z form a matrix of order 3 ×3, the variables x, y, and z form a matrix of order 1 ×3 and the constants form a matrix of order 1 ×3.
Step 2:
The linear system A is represented as
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}12&1&1\\1&-11&0\\1&-1&4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D12%261%261%5C%5C1%26-11%260%5C%5C1%26-1%264%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x\\y\\z\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7Dx%5C%5Cy%5C%5Cz%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
![= \left[\begin{array}{ccc}26\\17\\23\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D26%5C%5C17%5C%5C23%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
.
Step 3:
The linear system B is represented as
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}4&1&1\\1&-11&0\\1&-1&12\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D4%261%261%5C%5C1%26-11%260%5C%5C1%26-1%2612%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
![= \left[\begin{array}{ccc}23\\17\\26\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D23%5C%5C17%5C%5C26%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
.
Step 4:
The linear system C is represented as
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}1&1&1\\1&-1&0\\1&-1&1\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D1%261%261%5C%5C1%26-1%260%5C%5C1%26-1%261%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
![= \left[\begin{array}{ccc}4\\11\\12\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D4%5C%5C11%5C%5C12%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
.
Step 5:
The linear system D is represented as
![= \left[\begin{array}{ccc}12\\11\\4\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%3D%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D12%5C%5C11%5C%5C4%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
.
Step 6:
Of the four options, the linear system D has the matrix of constants [[12], [11], [4]]. So the answer is option D. D.
X = 40, Y = 15
40(2) + 15(2) = 80 + 30 = 110 :)
