Question

M is the midpoint of segment VW. Find the value of n.​

Answer 1

x=4

Explanation:

4x-1=3x+3 because both sides are equal, since M is a midpoint.

Subtract 3x to both sides to get x-1=3.

Add 1 to both sides to get x=4.

Answer 2

`\huge\boxed{\sf x = 4}`

Explanation:

If M is the midpoint of VW.

Then,

WM = MW

Given that WM = 4x - 1 and MW = 3x + 3

So,

4x - 1 = 3x + 3

Combining like terms

4x - 3x = 3 + 1

x = 4
