Point K is on line segment \overline{JL} JL . Given JL=4x, JL=4x, JK=2x+3,JK=2x+3, and KL=x, KL=x, determine the numerical length of \overline{KL}. KL .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Required

Determine KL

From the given parameters, we understand that K is a point on J and L;

This implies that

Substitute values for JK, KL and JL

Collect Like Terms

To solve for KL, we simply substitute 3 for L in

Hence;

because linear equations are a lot simpler than quadratics equations, and linear equations formula is a lot easier to memorize. that's why i think they're harder.
