Answer:
VW = 4
Explanation:
Since V is the midpoint of line UW, we can say that the measure of UV is equal to VW (see def. of midpoint). Thus, we can generate the equation using the statements provided, leading us to this equation: x+2 = 2x. We can then subtract x on both sides, leading us to 2 = x, or x = 2.
We were given that VW = 2x, thus the measure of VW is equal to 2(2) or 4.
(BONUS: since we know that VW ≅ UV, then the measure of UV is also equal to 4, which when applied to the formula for UV (x+2) we get the equation for UV, x+2=4. This is a way to prove that x=2, as 2+2=4. We can also use this knowledge to find the total length of this line segment, which would be 8, as 4+4=8)
