Explanation:

Use segment addition/subtraction:

GK = GJ − HJ + HK

GK = 2x + 5 − x + 4x − 1

GK = 5x + 4

If GK = 39, then the value of x is:

39 = 5x + 4

5x = 35

x = 7

Use segment subtraction to find GH and JK.

GH = GJ − HJ

GH = 2x + 5 − x

GH = x + 5

GH = 12

JK = HK − HJ

JK = 4x − 1 − x

JK = 3x − 1

JK = 20
