Y is between points J and A. JA=17 and YA=3. What is JY?
Answer:
JY= 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Y is between points J and A
Y is a point that is inbetween the line with end point J and A
\(JA = JY +YA\)
Given that : JA=17 and YA=3
Replace the value in the equation and find out JY
\(JA = JY +YA\)
\(17 = JY +3\)
Subtract 3 from both sides of the equation
\(17-3 = JY +3-3\)
\(14= JY\)
So JY= 14
