Answer:  13

==================================================

Work Shown:

AB+BC = AC

(11) + (2x-1) = 3x+3

2x+10 = 3x+3

2x-3x = 3-10

-x = -7

x = 7

which is then use to find:

  • BC = 2x-1 = 2*7-1 = 13
  • AC = 3x+3 = 3*7+3 = 24

As a check,

AB+BC = 11+13 = 24 = AC which confirms the answer.
