JK where T is the midpoint. J >>>>> T >>>>> K.
JK = 5x - 3
JT = 2x + 1
Because T is the midpoint, it means that JT = TK
So, JT + TK = JK
(2x + 1) + (2x + 1) = 5x - 3
4x + 2 = 5x - 3
4x - 5x = -3 - 2
-x = -5
x = 5
JK = 5x - 3
JK = 5(5) - 3
JK = 25 -3
JK = 22
The length of JK is 22.
What ever number is on the largest side
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
perimeter = sum of the sides = (3y+5) + (y-4) + (6y) = 10y + 1
Answer:
x=10
Step-by-step explanation:
5/8x - 11/2 = 3/4
Multiply each side by 8 to clear the fractions
8(5/8x - 11/2 = 3/4)
5x - 44 = 6
Add 44 to each side
5x-44+4= 6+4
5x= 50
Divide by 5
5x/5 = 50/5
x =10
