Answer:

x = 0.

Explanation:

The distance between the point U and W are x + 10 and 2x + 3 + 7 so we can make the following equation:

x + 10 = 2x + 3 + 7

x + 10 = 2x + 10

Subtract 10 from both sides:

x = 2x

Subtract x from both sides:

0 = x

x = 0

Explanation:

7 + 2x + 3 = x + 10

2x - x = 10 - 7 - 3

x = 0

What?

I don't think this helps...
