Question

I really need help!

In the diagram below of triangle HIJ, K is the midpoint of HJ and L is the
midpoint of IJ. If KL = -8x +96, and HI= -8x + 120, what is the measure
of KL?
H
L

Answer 1

Answer: 24

Step-by-step explanation: HI = 2 times KL

-8x + 120 = 2(-8x + 96)

-8x + 120 = -16x + 192

8x = 72

x = 9

KL = -8x + 96

KL = -8(9) + 96

KL = 24
