if its a perpendicular bisector, then AE=ED so 2x-10=x+3

ok but the answers i have to chose from are 10,11,12,13 and the answer to what your showing me is 13=3x 5=x

OpenStudy (nikato):

try again. i think u made an algebraic error 2x-10=x+3 2x=x+13 x=13

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (nikato):
