Sagot :

Answer:

B.  4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since ,AB is the mid segment of triangle LMN

Then

[tex]\Longleftrightarrow AB=\frac{MN}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\Longleftrightarrow x+8=\frac{5x+4}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\Longleftrightarrow 2\times(x+8)=5x+4[/tex]

[tex]\Longleftrightarrow 2x+16=5x+4[/tex]

[tex]\Longleftrightarrow 16-4=5x-2x[/tex]

[tex]\Longleftrightarrow 3x=12[/tex]

[tex]\Longleftrightarrow x=\frac{12}{3}=4[/tex]
