Explanation:

this is one-dimensional ? everything just on one number line ?

TU = 2 - -17 = 2 + 17 = 19

TU is 19 units long (17 units on the negative side, and 2 units on the positive side of the number line).

therefore, to make TU = UV a true statement, UV has also to be 19 units long.

as U = 2,

V = U + UV = 2 + 19 = 21
