Answers:
x = 7
AB = 47
=============================================================
Explanation:
Since B is the midpoint of AC, this means AB and BC are equal in length
AB = BC
6x+5 = 3x+26
6x-3x = 26-5
3x = 21
x = 21/3
x = 7
Note how
- AB = 6x+5 = 6*7+5 = 42+5 = 47
- BC = 3x+26 = 3*7+26 = 21+26 = 47
Both AB and BC are 47 units long. This helps confirm the answers and we can say AC = AB+BC = 47+47 = 94.
