Answer 2

Answer:

$JL=3x-2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : If JM=5x-8 and LM=2x-6.

To find : Which expression represents JL?

Solution :

To analyse the question refer the attached figure below.

We know that,

$JM=JL+LM$

Here, JM=5x-8 and LM=2x-6

Substitute the values,

$5x-8=JL+2x-6$

$JL=5x-8-2x+6$

$JL=3x-2$

Therefore, $JL=3x-2$
