B is the midpoint of AC. If AB= X +5 and BC = 2X -11, find the measure of AB

Hi! Actually, the answer is 21. Because x+5 and 2x-11 are equivalent, set them equal to one another in an equation. Solve for x
You can see my steps in the picture i attached for you!!
Then, once you have x, you need to plug it back in to the expression x+5 (AB) to get 21. I hope this helps you!! :))

Answer:
x >
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 3 and 1 to get 4.
Use the distributive property to multiply 5 by 9−x.
Subtract 45/5 from both sides.
Since 44/4 and 45/4 have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
Multiply both sides by -4/5, the reciprocal of -5/4. Since -5/4 is negative, the inequality direction is changed.
Multiply -1/4 times -4/5 by multiplying numerator times numerator and denominator times denominator.
