Answer:

[tex]LM = 13[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]MN = 5[/tex]

[tex]LN = 18[/tex]

Required

[tex]Find\ LM[/tex]

Since, M is between LN, we have:

[tex]LN = LM + MN[/tex]

Substitute values for MN and LN

[tex]18 = LM + 5[/tex]

Make LM the subject

[tex]LM = 18 - 5[/tex]

[tex]LM = 13[/tex]
