The image shows a line segment \( JL \), with a point \( K \) located between \( J \) and \( L \). The distances are labeled as:

- \( JK = 0.75 \, \text{cm} \)
- \( KL = 0.35 \, \text{cm} \)

To find the total length of segment \( JL \), we simply add the two distances:

\[
JL = JK + KL = 0.75 \, \text{cm} + 0.35 \, \text{cm} = 1.10 \, \text{cm}
\]

Thus, the length of \( JL \) is \( 1.10 \, \text{cm} \).

Would you like further details or have any other questions?

Here are 5 related questions to explore this further:
1. What would the distance be if \( JK \) was doubled?
2. How would you calculate the midpoint of \( JL \)?
3. What fraction of \( JL \) is \( JK \)?
4. If the total length of \( JL \) were unknown, how could you solve for \( JL \) given \( JK \) and \( KL \)?
5. How could this be applied to a coordinate plane to calculate distances?

**Tip:** When adding measurements, always make sure the units are consistent to avoid errors in calculation.

What is the total length of segment JL based on the lengths of segments JK and KL?
