Question

Find KL figure is not drawn to scale. 2y-35 jk is 12. What is KL

Answer 1

JK+KL = 2y-35

12+y=2y-35

y-2y=-35-12

-y=-47

y=47

KL=47

Explanation:

Answer 2

KL = 47

Explanation:

We know that:

JK+KL = JL

Because JL is the complete line.

Substitute the the value:

12+y = 2y -35

Add 35 on both sides

12+y+35 = 2y

47 +y = 2y

Subtract y on both sides:

47 + y - y = 2y -y

47 = y

Therefore, KL = y = 47
