Question
Point O is on line segment NP‾\overline{NP}NP. Given OP=10,OP=10,OP=10, NP=2x,NP=2x,NP=2x, and NO=x+7,NO=x+7,NO=x+7, determine the numerical length of NO‾.\overline{NO}.NO.

Given:
Point O is on line segment NP.
OP=10, NP=2x, and NO=x+7.
To find:
The numerical length of NO.
Solution:
If point O is on line segment NP, then by segment addition property, we get
Subtract both sides by x.
The value of x is 17.
Now,
Therefore, the numerical length of NO is 24units.
