Question

find the indicated segment length. show work.
7.
x =
jm = units
mk = units
6x + 11
9x - 13
j
m
k

Explanation:

Step1: Asumir que JM = MK

$6x + 11=9x - 13$

Step2: Reorganizar términos para resolver x

$11 + 13=9x - 6x$
$24 = 3x$
$x=\frac{24}{3}=8$

Step3: Calcular JM

Sustituir x = 8 en JM = 6x + 11
$JM=6\times8 + 11=48+11 = 59$

Step4: Calcular MK

Sustituir x = 8 en MK = 9x - 13
$MK=9\times8 - 13=72 - 13=59$

Answer:

$x = 8$
$JM = 59$ units
$MK = 59$ units
