Answer:
XM = 1 unit
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that, M is the midpoint in the segment.
Midpoint bisects the lines such that,
XM = MY
Put XM = x+2 and MY = 2x+3
x+2=2x+3
Taking like terms together,
x-2x=3-2
-x=1
x = -1
Put x = -1 in XM = x+2
(-1) + 2 = 1 = XM
So, the value of XM is 1 unit.
