You can put this solution on YOUR website!
i think your line is HJK
\n" ); document.write( "pont J is between points H and K.
\n" ); document.write( "this results in HJ + JK = HK\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "if so, then 5x-4 + 8x-10 = 38\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "combine like terms to get 13x - 14 = 38\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "add 14 to both sides of the equation to get 13x = 52\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "divide both sides of the equation by 13 to get x = 52/13 = 4\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
