Answer 1

D

Explanation:

Because the centroid is the point of intersection of the three medians, then HK must be equal to KG.

So we can make an equation to solve for x.

3x = x + 8

2x = 8

x = 4

And since the centroid divides the median into a ratio of 2:1, then LG must be twice the length of JL, so LG = 2(x + 3), hence LG = 14 units.
