Point p is on line segment o q ‾ oq . given o q = 4 x − 10 , oq=4x−10, o p = 2 x , op=2x, and p q = x , pq=x, determine the numerical length of o p ‾ . op .

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Point P is on line segment OQ

so

-----> by addition segment postulate

we have

substitute the values and solve for x

Find the numerical length of OP

substitute the value of x

addition

step-by-step explanation:

x = -4

step-by-step explanation:

- 20 - 4(x + 3) = 4x

=> -20 - 4x - 12 = 4x

=> - 32 -4x = 4x

=> -32 = 4x + 4x

=> - 32 = 8x

=> -32/8 = x

=> -4 = x
