If B is the midpoint of AC, then AB=BC. It is also BC=AC-AB
AB = x + 6
AC = 5x - 6
BC = (5x - 6) - (x + 6)
We can kinda use distributive property, like this:
BC = 5x - 6 -x - 6
Combine like terms:
BC = 4x - 12
To verify, we can add AB and BC to see if their sum is equal to AC.
(x + 6) + (4x - 12) = 5x - 6
If we are correct, this equation will be true.
x + 6 + 4x - 12 = 5x - 6
Combine like terms:
6 + 5x - 12 = 5x - 6
5x - 6 = 5x - 6
It's correct!
BC = 4x - 12. Final Answer.

Answer:
x= -5 y= -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: The answer is not -7 it is in fact -31.
Step-by-step explanation:
5 - ( 6^2 ) / 4 - 3
6^2 = 36
5 - ( 6^2 ) = -31
4 - 3 = 1
5 - 36 / 1 = -31 / 1 = -31
So anything divided by 1 is = to itself.
