The length of MP is 22 units.

<h3>What is a Line Segment?</h3>

A line segment is defined as a measured path between two places. Line segments can make up any polygon's sides because they have a set length.

The figure is given below shows a line segment AP, where the length of line segment AP refers to the distance between its endpoints, A and P.

Given that Points A, M and P are collinear with M in between A and P.

AP=29, AM =5x-3 and MP=8x+6,

A______________M______________P

⇒ AP = AM + MP

Substitute the values of AP = 29, AM =5x-3 and MP=8x+6,

⇒ 29 = 5x - 3 + 8x+6,

Rearranging the terms in the above equation,

⇒ 5x + 8x = 29 + 3 - 6

⇒ 13x = 26,

⇒ x = 26/13,

⇒ x = 2

So MP = 8x+6

Substitute the value of x = 2 in the above equation,

⇒ MP = 8(2) + 6

⇒ MP = 22

Hence, the length of MP is 22 units.

Answer:

4 feet of wall should be on each side of the painting.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a 4 foot wide painting should be centered on a 12 foot wide wall, to determine how many feet (X) should be on each side of the painting, the following equation must be solved:

(Total wide of the wall - wide of the painting) / 2 = X

(12 - 4) / 2 = X

8/2 = X

4 = X

Therefore, 4 feet of wall should be on each side of the painting.
