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!! :))

Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have equal slopes.
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = 5x + 1 ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 5
Rearrange 2y - 10x + 3 = 0 into this form
Add 10x to both sides
2y = 10x ( subtract 3 from both sides )
2y = 10x - 3 ( divide all terms by 2 )
y = 5x - ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 5
Since both lines have a slope of 5 then they are parallel.
