Answer :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

L is the midpoint of KM. So, length of KL = length of LM

KL = LM = 14x

KL + LM = KM

14x + 14x = 26x + 14 {add the like terms}

28x = 26x + 14   {subtract 26x form both sides}

28x - 26x = 14

          2x = 14   {divide both side by 2}

        2x/2 = 14/2

             x = 7

KL = 14x = 14*7

KL = 98
