[tex]\dfrac{|MN|}{|NJ|}=\dfrac{|KL|}{|LJ|}\\\\\dfrac{22}{12+8}=\dfrac{y}{8}\\\\\dfrac{22}{20}=\dfrac{y}{8}\ \ \ |cross\ multiply\\\\20y=22\cdot8\\\\20y=176\ \ \ |:20\\\\\boxed{y=8.8}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{|MK|}{|KJ|}=\dfrac{|NL|}{|LJ|}\\\\\dfrac{x-2}{5}=\dfrac{12}{8}\ \ \ \ |cross\ multiply\\\\8(x-2)=5\cdot12\\\\8x-16=60\ \ \ |+16\\\\8x=76\ \ \ |:8\\\\\boxed{x=9.5}[/tex]
