(I'm so confused please help) Suppose M is the midpoint of XY. If XM = 2x + 11 and MY = 5x - 16, find the value of X.
A) x = -4
B) x = 4
C) x = -9
D) x = 9
E) x = 2

My math:
2x + 11 = 5x + 16
(-5x and -11 from both sides)
-3x=5
(divide -3 on each side)
x=-5/3
But it isn't an option, so I don't know.
