let's bear in mind that B is the midpoint and thus it cuts a segment into two equal halves.

\bf \underset{\leftarrow \qquad \textit{\large 10x-6}\qquad \to }{\boxed{A}\stackrel{4x+2}{\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}} B\stackrel{\underline{4x+2}}{\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}\boxed{C}}} \\\\\\ AC=AB+BC\implies 10x-6=(4x+2)+(4x+2)\implies 10x-6=8x+4 \\\\\\ 2x-6=4\implies 2x=10\implies x=\cfrac{10}{2}\implies x= 5 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ AC=(4x+2)+(4x+2)\implies AC=[4(5)+2]+[4(5)+2] \\\\\\ AC=22+22\implies AC=44

harkovskaia [24]

Given:

The function is:

h(x)=x^2-3x+5

To find:

The value of h(2x+1).

Solution:

We have,

h(x)=x^2-3x+5

Putting x=2x+1, we get

h(2x+1)=(2x+1)^2-3(2x+1)+5

h(2x+1)=(2x)^2+2(2x)(1)+(1)^2-3(2x)-3(1)+5

h(2x+1)=4x^2+4x+1-6x-3+5

On combining like terms, we get

h(2x+1)=4x^2+(4x-6x)+(1-3+5)

h(2x+1)=4x^2-2x+3

Therefore, the required function is h(2x+1)=4x^2-2x+3.
