The value of x is 1. Substituting x into the expression for IJ, we find IJ = 15. Therefore, the measure of IJ is 15.

Since I and J are the midpoints of FH and GH respectively, then FG = 2IJ.

Substituting the expressions that were given for FG and IJ, we get:

35 - 5x = 2(21 - 6x)

35 - 5x = 42 -12x

7x = 7

x = 1

Plugging the value of x back into the expression that was given for IJ, we get:

IJ = 21 - 6(1)

IJ = 21 - 6

IJ = 15

Therefore, the measure of IJ is 15.
