Question

If uw =6x-35, find uw

Answer 1

The value of uw is 67

Explanation:

Given that,

If uw= 6x-35...(I)

Line segment consists of points u,v,w

u to v is 19

v to w is 4x-20

We need to calculate the value of x

Using given data

`uw=6x-35`

`uv+vw=6x-35`

Put the value of u and w

`19+4x-20=6x-35`

`19+35-20=6x-4x`

`34=2x`

`x=(34)/(2)`

`x=17`

We need to calculate the value of uw

Put the value of x in equation (I)

`uw=6*17-35`

`uw=67`

Hence, The value of uw is 67
