Answer:

14

Explanation:

To find TV you must add the length of TU (6) by the length of UV (4x) to find x to find the length of TV(7x).

6+4x=7x

Do inverse operations to solve for x.

6=3x

x=2

Now that we know x is 2, we must substitute 2 in for the x in the equation for TV (7x).

7 × 2 = 14

TU = 14
