SOLUTION: Given that B is between A and C, solve for x and find the missing measurements:
AB = 4, BC = 10x-2, AC= (x+9)4
Please explain how to do these types of problems I'm very confu

Question 341120: Given that B is between A and C, solve for x and find the missing measurements:
AB = 4, BC = 10x-2, AC= (x+9)4
Please explain how to do these types of problems I'm very confused. Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
If A, B, and C are collinear points and B is between A and C, then the measure of the the segment AB plus the measure of the segment BC is equal to the measure of the segment AC. Hence:
Solve for and then substitute back into the expressions for the measurements.
