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
