Question

Ok I need help please I can’t figure it out

Answer 1

Since M is the midpoint of line CB, then line CM has equal length as line MB. We have;

`3x+1=5x-9`

Then, we collect like terms;

`\begin{gathered} 1+9=5x-3x \\ 2x=10 \end{gathered}`

Divide both sides of the equation by 2;

`\begin{gathered} (2x)/(2)=(10)/(2) \\ x=5 \end{gathered}`

CORRECT OPTION: 5
