Question

Point M is on line segment \overline{LN}

Answer 1

Considering the relation built the presence of point M on line LN, the numerical length of LN is of 9 units.

What is the relation from the presence of point M on the line LN?

Point M splits line LN into two parts, LM and MN, hence the total length is given by:

LN = LM + MN.

From the given data, we have that:

• LN = 2x - 5.

• LM = 3.

• MN = x - 1.

Hence we first solve for x.

LN = LM + MN.

2x - 5 = 3 + x - 1

x = 7.

Hence the total length is:

LN = 2x - 5 = 2 x 7 - 5 = 14 - 5 = 9 units.
