Answer:

The answer to your question is: AC = 20

Explanation:

Data

AB = 2x - 4

BC = 4x

AC = 2x + 12

AC = ?

AB + BC = AC

2x - 4 + 4x = 2x + 12

6x - 4 = 2x + 12

6x - 2x = 12 + 4

4x = 16

x = 16/4

x = 4

AB = 2(4) - 4 = 8 - 4 = 4

BC = 4(4) = 16

AC = 2(4) + 12 = 8 + 12 = 20

4 + 16 = 20

20 = 20
