Answer:

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

if ab =58 find the value of x

The length of AB= 58

Given : AC= 3x-6

CB= 2x+4

[tex]AC + CB=AB[/tex]

Now replace the expressions

[tex]3x-6+2x+4=58[/tex]

now we solve for x, combine like terms

[tex]5x-2=58[/tex]

Add 2 on both sides

[tex]5x=60[/tex]

Divide both sides by 5

x=12
