Find the x value for point L such that JL and KL form a 3:1 ratio. A. 5.25
B. 2.33
C. 2.25
D. 4.33

C. 2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The following information is missing: J is at (-3, 4). K is at (4,-2).

The x value for point L such that JL and KL form a 3:1 ratio is obtained as follows:

where ratio m:n givesfraction m/(m+n), run is the distance over x-axis between J and K, and xJ is the x-coordinate of J.

Replacing into the equation:

m/(m+n)*run + xJ = 3/4*7 + (-3) = 2.25

The correct answer is x = 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given an expression,

1/4x = 5/8

To solve the expression

The given expression is 1/4x = 5/8

(Cross multiply both sides we get)

8 = 5 * 4x

8 = 20x

20x = 8

x = 8/20

x = 2/5

Therefore the value of x = 2/5

The correct answer is x = 2/5
