Answer 1

bc=26 !!!! please give me a good rating

Answer 2

Given:

Points B and C lie on the line segment AD, with AB

Required:

We need to find the value of BC.

Step-by-step explanation:

Point B lies between A and C since AB < AC.

`We\text{ know that AD=AB+BC+CD.}`

Substitute AD=76, CD=24, and AB=BC in the equation.

`76=BC+BC+24`
`76=2BC+24`

Subtract 24 from both sides of the equation.

`76-24=2BC+24-24`
`52=2BC`

Divide both sides by 2.

`(52)/(2)=(2BC)/(2)`
`26=BC`

Final answer:

`BC=26`
