Question

Find ML i don’t know what else to put here so yea

Answer 1

Given the line segment NK

As shown:

`\begin{gathered} NK=x+243 \\ NM=110+4x \\ ML=x+103 \\ LK=70 \end{gathered}`

All the points are collinear:

So,

`NK=NM+ML+LK`

substitute with the values of each term

so,

`x+243=(110+4x)+(x+103)+70`

solve the equation to find x:

Combine the like terms:

`\begin{gathered} x-4x-x=110+103+70-243 \\ -4x=283-243 \\ -4x=40 \\ x=(40)/(-4)=-10 \end{gathered}`

now, substitute with x into the equation of ML

so,

`ML=x+103=-10+103=93`

so, the answer will be:

`ML=93`
