if L-M-N is what?
L-M-N is a line segment.
oh, then LM+MN=LN (in terms of the lengths) write the equation using what you know and solve for x. then you can get LM and MN.
I'm not sure which equation to use, because, LM = 2x , MN = 3x - 1 , and LN = 24.
right... use those in the equation above.

you will be substituting... instead of LM use 2x. Instead of MN use 2x-1. Instead of LN use 24.
sorry, 3x-1 for MN.
My answer for MN was 14.
so x = 5, yeah?
That's what I got.
