Bisect: To divide something such as a line or angle into two sections of the same length.

This means that length
AB = length
BC. Set up the equation:


2x - 3 = x + 4

Let's simplify the variables. First have -3 and x switch places:


2x - x = 4 + 3

Which leaves you with


x = 7

You are left with x = 7. Plug in the value of x below:


2(7) - 3 = (7) + 4

=
14 - 3 = 7 + 4

Which means that line
AB has a length of 11 units.
