Respuesta :
AC = CD
And since the problem gave us two equations to use we will substitute them into the previous statement.
3x + 6 = 2x + 14
We now simplify with algebra and I will show every step.
3x + 6 = 2x + 14
-2x = -2x
x + 6 = +14
-6 = -6
x = 8

Answer:
[tex]x=8[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that [tex]AC=3x+6[/tex] and [tex]CD=2x+14[/tex].
To solve for x, we are assuming that C is the midpoint of segment AD and we will equate both expressions as:
[tex]3x+6=2x+14[/tex]
[tex]3x-2x+6=2x-2x+14[/tex]
[tex]x+6=14[/tex]
[tex]x+6-6=14-6[/tex]
[tex]x=8[/tex]
Therefore, the value of x is 8.
