Answer:

  • x = 8
  • AM = BM = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Your problem setup is correct. The triangle is isosceles, so the marked segments are the same length.

  3x - 8 = 2x

You can solve this by subtracting 2x (from both sides) ...

  x - 8 = 0

Then adding 8 (to both sides):

  x = 8

MB = MA = 2x = 16.
