Question

solve for the value of x 7) 6x+4 8x-2 x m y

Explanation:

Step1: Assume segments are equal (midpoint)

Since \( m \) is the midpoint, \( 6x + 4 = 8x - 2 \)

Step2: Solve for \( x \)

Subtract \( 6x \) from both sides: \( 4 = 2x - 2 \)
Add 2 to both sides: \( 6 = 2x \)
Divide by 2: \( x = 3 \)

Answer:

\( x = 3 \)
