<span>A midpoint divides a line or a segment into two equal parts. If D is the midpoint of the segment AC and C is the midpoint of segment DB, what is the length of the segment AB, if AC = 3 cm.</span>
If D is the midpoint of AC, then AD=DC
If C is the midpoint of DB, then DC=CB
If AC=3cm. then then DC-3/2=1.5
If DC=1.5 then CB is 1.5 also
AB=AC+CB
AB=3+1.5
AB=4.5
<em><u>Explanation</u></em>:
The only information we have to go on is that ∠AWZ ≅ ∠XYC. However, these are not specific kinds of angles that can prove lines parallel. If we had a pair of alternate interior angles, such as ∠AWZ and ∠WZY, we could say that the lines are parallel. However, we do not have enough information.

Answer:
B (2 violet)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the colors be represented by their first letter. Then the balances give rise to two equation:
o +y +b +v = r +g +b
o +y +v = g +v
Subtracting the second equation from the first gives ...
(o +y +b +v) -(o +y +v) = (r +g +b) -(g +v)
b = r +b -v
Adding v-b to both sides, we have ...
b +(v -b) = r +b -v +(v -b)
v = r
Multiplying this result by 2, we can match the final balance:
2r = 2v . . . . . . . choice B
