Points A, B, and C are collinear. Point B is between A and C. Find the length indicated. Find BC if AB=2x-12, AC=14, and BC=x+2

Collinear points are points on the same line.

The value of BC is 10

Since points A, B and C are on the same line, where B is between points A and C.

So, we have:

Substitute values for AC, AB and BC

Collect like terms

Divide both sides of the equation by 3

Substitute 8 for x in BC = x + 2

Hence, the value of BC is 10

Work Shown:

The term "collinear" means all points fall on the same straight line.

Point B is on segment AC.

Through the segment addition postulate, we can say

AB+BC = AC

This is the idea where we glue together smaller segments to form a larger segment, and we keep everything to be a straight line.

Apply substitution and solve for x

AB+BC = AC

2x-12+x+2 = 14

3x-10 = 14

3x = 14+10

3x = 24

x = 24/3

x = 8

Then we can find the length of BC

BC = x+2

BC = 8+2

BC = 10

Note that AB = 2x-12 = 2*8-12 = 16-12 = 4

and how AB+BC = 4+10 = 14 which matches with AC = 14

Therefore we have shown AB+BC = AC is true to confirm the answer.
