Question

If LN=3+8x, find LN

L•——–8•——M——6x-1——–•N

Answer 1

Value of LN = 19 units

Explanation:

Given:

LN = 3 + 8x

Find:

Value of LN

Computation:

We know that LM + MN = LN

So,

8 + 6x - 1 = LN

So,

3 + 8x = 8 + 6x - 1

3 + 8x = 7 + 6x

8x - 6x = 7 - 3

2x = 4

x = 2

So,

LN = 3 + 8x

LN = 3 + 8(2)

LN = 3 + 16

LN = 19

Value of LN = 19 units
