Answer:


\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{ \sf{67}}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

UV = 19

VW = 4x - 20

UW = 6x - 35

To find : value of UW

First, finding the value of x

Create an equation and solve for x


\sf{UV + VW = UW}


\longrightarrow{ \sf{19 + 4x - 20 = 6x - 35}}


\longrightarrow{ \sf{ - 1 + 4x = 6x - 35}}


\longrightarrow{ \sf{4x - 6x = - 35 + 1}}


\longrightarrow{ \sf{ - 2x = - 34}}


\longrightarrow{ \sf{ ( - 2x)/( - 2) = ( - 34)/( - 2)}}


\longrightarrow{ \sf{x = 17}}

Value of x = 17

Replacing / Substituting the value of x in 6x - 35 in order to find the value of UW


\sf{UW = 6x - 35 = 6 * 17 - 35 = 67}

UW = 67

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

UW = 67

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find UV in terms of x.
6x - 35 - (4x - 20) = 2x - 15
2x - 15 = 19

2. Solve for x.
2x - 15 = 19
2x = 34
x = 17

3. Use the value of x to find UW.
UW = 19 + (4(17) - 20) = 67
