Point N is on line segment MO. Given MN = x, MO = 3x - 6,
and NO = x + 1, determine the numerical length of MO.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

N is between points M and O

MN = x

MO = 3x - 6

NO = x + 1

The way it reads MN + NO = MO

x + x + 1 = 3x - 6

2x + 1 = 3x - 6

2x - 2x +1 = 3x -2x - 6

1 = x - 6          

1 + 6 = x

x = 7

MO = 3x - 6

MO = 3*7 - 6

MO = 21 - 6

MO = 15
