Answer:
x = 10
Explanation:
Given question is incomplete; here is the complete question.
A man (M) is standing halfway between a tree (T) and a lamppost (L). What is the value of x.
TM = (2x + 8)
ML = (3x - 2)
Since, a man M is standing halfway between a tree and a lamppost,
measure of TM = measure of ML
(2x + 8) = (3x - 2)
3x - 2x = 8 + 2
x = 10
Therefore, x = 10 will be the answer.
