Question

in the figure below, n is between m and o, and o is between n and p. if np = 8, no = 3, and mp = 14, find mo.

Explanation:

Step1: Find length of MP - NP

We know that $MP = 14$ and $NP=8$. So, $MN=MP - NP$.
$MN=14 - 8=6$.

Step2: Calculate MO

Since $MO=MN + NO$, and $MN = 6$, $NO = 3$.
$MO=6 + 3$.
$MO = 9$.

Answer:

$9$
