Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

If J is between H and K then HJ + JK = HK

Given

HJ=6x-5

JK=4x-6

KH=129

Required

The value of x

Substituting the given parametrs into the formula;

6x-5+4x-6 = 129

6x+4x-5-6 = 29

10x-11 = 129

add 11 to both sides

10x-11+11 = 129+11

10x = 140

divide both sides by 10

10x/10 = 140/10

x = 10

Hence the value of x is 10
