Please help me! Find AC

Mathematics

We are asked to find the length of AC, which measures 7x. Using the segment addition postulate, we can add the two given expressions for AB and BC and make it equal to the expression for AC. 
AB + BC=AC
5x+1+15=7x
5x+16=7x
16=2x
x=8
We've found the value of x, but we aren't done yet. We need to plug in the value we got for x into the expression for AC, which is 7x. Therefore, AC \Rightarrow7x\Rightarrow7(8)\Rightarrow\boxed{56}. Hope this helped and have a great day!

Answer:

72,90

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 9 is the biggest number so list multiples of 9 between 55- 101 range.

Which are 63, 72, 81, 90, 99. Any number that is a multiple of 9 is a multiple of 3 because 3x 3 = 9.  9 is a multiple of 3.

Any even number is a multiple of 2.

Only 72 and 90 are even numbers.

So 72 and 90 are numbers divisible by 2, 3, 9.

Digiron [165]
The two "shorter" sides are referring to the legs of the triangles, because the hypotenuse is the largest side. Looking at this, we can find that it's a 3-4-5 triangle, which means that the scaling factor is 3, because 9/3 =3, 12/3=4, meaning we multiply 5 by 3 to get 15.
