Answer:
MN = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that L, M, N are collinear,
LN = 9,
MN = 4x
LM = 5x
Required:
Length of MN
SOLUTION:
To calculate the numerical length of MN, we need to find the value of x.
To find the value of x, generate an equation to solve for x as follows:
(segment addition postulate)
(substitution)
Solve for x
Divide both sides by 9
MN = 4x
plug in the value of x
MN = 4(1) = 4
