Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since E is the midpoint, AE and EB are equal. We can write this as such,

4x+6=10x-12 if we solve from here we get 6x=18. Simplify to get x=3. sub in three for x in the AE equation, 4(3)+6 and solve. You'd get 18 as your answer. Double that to get the solution since AE= 1/2AB. 18*2= 36

AB=36

$(5x - 2)^2 = 15$

Square root both sides:
$5x - 2 = \pm\sqrt{15}$

Add 2 to both sides:
$5x = pm\sqrt{15} + 2$

Divide both sides by 5:
$x = \dfrac{ \pm\sqrt{15} + 2}{5}$

Answers:
$x = \dfrac{ \sqrt{15} + 2}{5} \ or \ \dfrac{ - \sqrt{15} + 2}{5}$

Answer: (B) and (E)
