Answer:

JK=11

Step-by-step explanation:

the angles at the top are the same meaning the lines are equivalent

so to find JK you have to equal 3x-16 and 2x-7. (3x-16=2x-7)

then simplify: 3x-2x-16=2x-2x-7 -> x-16= -7 -> x-16+16= -7+16 -> x=9

then plug 9 in for x in the equation 3x-16: 3(9)-16 -> 27-16=11

so JK=11

Answer:

JK is 11 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Solve for x

2x  - 7 - 2x + 16 = 3x - 16 - 2x + 16

x = 9

Step 2:  Plug in 9 for x

3x - 16

3(9) - 16

27 - 16

11

Answer:  JK is 11 units
