Answer:

LN = 64 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given M lies on LN, so LN = LM + MN --------------(1)

LN = 12x + 16

LM = 10x + 8

MN = 5x - 4

Substituting the values in equation 1, we get:

12x + 16 = (10x + 8) + (5x - 4)

12x + 16 = 15x + 4

15x - 12x = 16 -4

3x=12

Therefore x=4

LN= 12(4) + 16 = 64 units

What is the value of p in the question below. 10x9/2x4= px 5

ycow [4]

Answer:

p = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

$\frac{x^{a}}{x^{b}} = x^{a-b}$

$\frac{x^{9}}{x^{4}} = x^{9-4} = x^{5}$

10/2 = 5

Then

$\frac{10x^{9}}{2x^{4}} = 5x^{9-4} = 5x^{5}$

Finding p:

$5x^{5} = px^{5}$

$p = \frac{5x^{5}}{x^{5}}$

$p = 5$
