I’m going to assume the two segments are equal to one another. If that is the case your answer is x=5.

All you do is set them equal to each other and solve for x.

7x + 3= 9x - 7
-7x -7x
3 = 2x - 7
+7 +7
10 = 2x
10/2 = 2x/2

5 = x

Explanation:

In order to find the value of x, there should be some relation given between LN & MP which is absent here. So, kindly check the question again and repost it.
