Answer:

LM = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given:

L is the midpoint of NM

NL = 3x + 1

LM = 8x - 24

LM =?

Next, we shall determine the value of x.

This can be obtained as follow:

Since L is the midpoint of NM, it means that NL and LM are equal i.e

NL = LM

Thus, we can obtain the value of x as follow:

NL = 3x + 1

LM = 8x - 24

NL = LM

3x + 1 = 8x - 24

Collect like terms

3x - 8x = - 24 - 1

-5x = - 25

Divide both side by - 5

x = -25/-5

x = 5

Finally, we shall determine the length of LM as follow:

LM = 8x - 24

x = 5

LM = 8(5) - 24

LM = 40 - 24

LM = 16

Therefore, the length of LM is 16

Perimeter is a square clock is 16 6/9 inches. Perimeter of a rectangular clock is 16 16/18 inches. Write an inequality comparing
worty [1.4K]
<span>16 6/9 inches < 16 16/18 inches or Perimeter of square clock < Perimeter of rectangular clock First we would put convert the perimeter fractions into equivalent terms. So for the square clock, 16 6/9 inches becomes 16 12/18 inches (multiplying the fraction by 2/2). Now it is obvious that that the square clock at 16 12/18 inches has a smaller perimeter than the rectangular clock with a perimeter of 16 16/18 inches.</span>
