Question

If LN = 12x + 16, what is the length of Line segment L N in units? 16 units 40 units 48 units 64 units

Answer 1

LN = 64 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given M lies on LN, so LN = LM + MN --------------(1)

LN = 12x + 16

LM = 10x + 8

MN = 5x - 4

Substituting the values in equation 1, we get:

12x + 16 = (10x + 8) + (5x - 4)

12x + 16 = 15x + 4

15x - 12x = 16 -4

3x=12

Therefore x=4

LN= 12(4) + 16 = 64 units

Answer 2

Answer: 12(4) + 16 = 64
