If CE = 101 and AE = 99, what is the correct equation to find AC?(1 point)

Question

Responses

992+x2 = 1012
992+x2 = 1012

99+101=x
99 plus 101 is equal to x

99+x = 101
99+x = 101

992+1012=x2

Answer 1

To find AC using the information provided, we consider that CE and AE are segments of AC. The correct equation would represent the relationship:

AC = AE + CE

Given that AE = 99 and CE = 101, you can express this as:

AC = 99 + 101

Thus, the equation that corresponds to this would be:

99 + x = 101

However, from the responses provided, the equation closest to what's needed to find AC, as it involves both segments, is:

99 + x = 101

Therefore, this is the correct response.
