Answer:

26.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, BD is a median. As it divides the AC equally, that's why it will AD=CD. Given, AD= 6x+10 and CD= 2x+12

Now, AD=  CD

or, 6x+10=2x+12

or, 6x-2x= 12-10

or, 4x= 2

or, x= 1/2

So the value of x is 1/2. As BD divided AC equally, both AD and CD will be equal and AD+CD= AC.

So, 6x+10+2x+12= AC

or, 8x+22= AC

or, 8 X (1/2) + 22= AC

or, 4+22 = AC

or, AC= 26.=
