Answer:

x=9; JL= 23

Step-by-step explanation:

To find x:

If JL and KM are equivalent, then JL = KM. Substitute the equations and you get 2x+5 = 7x-40.

Put the similar terms on the same side by subtracting 2x from both sides and adding 40 to both sides. You will get 45=5x.

Get x alone by dividing both sides by 5 and you will get 9=x.

To find JL:

Substitute the x in 2x+5 (JL length equation) with 9. Your new equation will be 2(9) + 5.

2•9 = 18.

18+5=23
