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

Can someone help me? I'm trying to find the slope form of 4x + 2y = 4.
Neporo4naja [7]
Here, Equation: 4x + 2y = 4
Divide the equation by 2, 
2x + y = 2
y = -2x + 2

Now, compare the equation with y = mx + c
Here, slope (m) = -2

In short, Your Answer would be -2

Hope this helps!
