Question

M is the MIDPOINT OF FG. FG = 26 AND GM = (3X - 2)

Answer 1

It is given in the question that

M is the MIDPOINT OF FG.

`FG = 26 \  AND \  GM = (3X - 2)`

Since M is the midpoint of FG, therefore GM is half of FG. That is

`3X-2 = (1)/(2) (26)`

`3X-2 =13 \\ 3X = 15 \\ X =5`

Therefore

`GM = 3(5) -2 = 13`

And FM is 13 too .
