Answer:

2< AC<8

Step-by-step explanation:

For a triangle to exits sum of two sides must always be greater than the the third side

⇒ AC<  AB+ BC =5+3=8 in

⇒AC<8 in

Also, the  difference of the two sides must be smaller than the length of third side

⇒ AC> | AB-BC| = |5-3| =2

AC> 2 in

therefore,  we can say  2< AC<8. Hence, AC can takes 3,4,5,6 values
