From the given graph, we can tell kl=lm 

therefore,

3x + 2 = 5x - 10

3x+2-2=5x-10-2 

subtract 2 from both sides. 

3x+ 0 =5x-12 3x=5x-12 

3x-5x=5x-5x-12 

subtract 5x from both sides.

-2x=0-12 -2x=-12 (-2x)/-2=-12/-2 

divide both sides by -2. 

1x= 6 -12/-2=6 

and of course the -2 and -2 cancel on left side leaving 1x. 

x=6

KL = 3x+2 = 20 units
