Answer:

  • x = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Pictures triangles are similar.

The ratio of corresponding sides is equal:

  • MP/JL = MN/JK

Substitute the values:

  • (4x - 2)/6 = 16/12

Solve for x:

  • (2x - 1)/3 = 4/3
  • 2x - 1 = 4
  • 2x = 5
  • x = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

KJ/JL = NM/MP

12/6 = 16/(4x - 2)

2 = 16/(4x - 2)

2(4x - 2) = 16

8x - 4 = 16

8x = 16 + 4

8x = 20

x = 20/8

x = 2.5

Hence,

Value of x is 2.5
