Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
A segment joining the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is half the length of the third side.
SP is a midline segment, thus
SP = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] LN , that is
2x + 3 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (5x - 14) ← multiply both sides by 2
4x + 6 = 5x - 14 ( subtract 4x from both sides )
6 = x - 14 ( add 14 to both sides )
20 = x
Thus
SP = 2x + 3 = 2(20) + 3 = 40 + 3 = 43 → C
