Question

Point K is on line segment JL. Given JL = x + 10, KL = 4x, and JK = 2x,
determine the numerical length of KL.

Answer 1

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

$2x + 4x = x + 10 \\ 6x - x = 10 \\ 5x = 10 \\ x = 10 \div 5 \\ x = 2 \\ kl = 4x \\ 4 \times 2 = 8 \\ kl = 8$

Answer 2

If the value of x will be 2. Then the length of KL will be 8 units.

What is coordinate geometry?

Coordinate geometry is the study of geometry using the points in space. Using this, it is possible to find the distance between the points, the dividing line is m:n ratio, finding the mid-point of the line, etc.

Point K is on line segment JL. Given JL = x + 10, KL = 4x, and JK = 2x.

Then the value of x will be

     JL = JK + KL

x + 10 = 2x + 4x

    5x = 10

      x = 2

Then the length of KL will be

KL = 4x

KL = 4 (2)

KL = 8 units
