Point j is on line segment ik. given jk = 2x – 1, ik = 3x + 2,
and i j = 3x – 5, determine the numerical length of jk.

JK=7

Step-by-step explanation:

From the line segment, since J is on it ,it means the line segment is

represented as I J K

from this illustration, we can say that the longest part of the line segment is from I to K

this means that, IJ +JK =IK

making JK the subject,

JK= IK - IJ

but from the question, JK=2x-1 , IK=3x+2 and IJ=3x-5

substituting them in the expression,

2x-1 =3x+2 -(3x-5)

solving for x

2x-1 =3x+2-3x+5

2x-1 =0+7

2x-1 =7

2x=1+7

2x=8

dividing through by 2

2x/2 =8/2

x=4

but the question says we should find the numerical value for JK

but from the line segment,

JK=2x-1

but now we know the value of x to be 2

so substituting it in the formula

JK= 2(4)-1

JK=8-1

JK=7

therefore, the numerical value for JK is 7

answer: there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.

step-by-step explanation:

let the total number of pages in the book which olive has already read be x.

then if olive has 184 pages left to read, then the total number of pages are in olive's book= pages she has read+pages she has left to read

therefore, the total number of pages in olivia's book=

hence, there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.

the correct answer is a.) bc< mn 5 stars if this you : )
