PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!! If K is the midpoint of JL, JK=9x-1, and KL=2x+27, find JL.
A. 35
B. 70
C. 62
D. 48

Answer 1

Answer:

A, 35

Step-by-step explanation:

9x - 1 = 2x + 27

7x - 1 = 27

7x = 28

7x/7 = 28/7

x = 4

and now we plug it in,

9x - 1

9(4) - 1

36 - 1

35

and for the second point,

2x+27

2(4)+27

8+27

35

Hope this helps. Sorry this is a late response.
