If B is the midpoint of AC, then AB = BC.

We have AB = x + 5 and BC = 2x - 11.

Therefore we have the equation:

x + 5 = 2x - 11       <em>subtract 5 from both sides</em>

x = 2x - 16       <em>subtract 2x from both sides</em>

-x = -16      <em>change the signs</em>

x = 16

Put the value of x to the expression x + 5:

AB = 16 + 5 = 21

<h3>Answer: AB = 21</h3>

How to find the discriminant of
Sonbull [250]

the discriminant   b^2 - 4ac when the equation is in the form of ax^2 +bx+c=0

13x^2-16x = x^2 -x

we need to get in it the standard form

subtract x^2 from each side

12x^2 -16x = -x

add x to each side

12x^2 -15x = 0

12x^2 -15x -0 =0

a=12 b=-15 c=0

b^2 -4ac

the discriminant = b^2

b^2 = (-15)2 = 225
