Answer:

The answer to your question is: AC = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Segment AC with midpoint = B

AC = 5x - 9

AB = 2x

AC = ?

Process

           total length = AC  but B is the midpoint so AB + AB = CA

                                                                                  2AB = CA

                Substitution        2(2x) = 5x - 9

                                             4x = 5x - 9

Solve for x                           4x - 5x = -9

                                             -1x = -9

                                              x = -9/-1

                                             x = 9

Finally,            AC = 5x - 9

                             = 5(9) - 9

                             = 45 - 9

                             = 36

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

Value x = 8 make the equation true .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : 3x = 24.

To find : Which value of x from the set {5, 6, 7, 8} makes this equation true?

Solution : We have given 3x = 24.

The equations are true when the Left hand side and right hand side of the equation are equal.

Then,

For x = 8 .

3 ( 8) = 24

24 = 24 .

Hence,

Left hand side = Right hand side.

Therefore, Value x = 8 make the equation true .
