Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
LK = 1/2RP
theorem: straight line joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and equal to half the length of the third side.
LK = 2x - 15 ; RP = 2x - 8
2x - 15 = 1/2(2x - 8)
2x - 15 = 2x - 8/2
2x - 15 = x - 4
Collect like terms and simplify
x = 11
