Answer:  AC will also be doubled.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that point B lie between A and C on AC. AB is doubled and BC is also doubled.

We are to find the effect on AC.

Let us consider that

AB = x  and  BC = y   ⇒  AC = AB + BC = x + y.

Then, being doubled, we get

AB = 2x  and  BC = 2y.

Therefore, we get

[tex]AC=AB+BC=2x+2y=2(x+y).[/tex]

Thus, AC will also get doubled.
