D. 20

Answer 1

Have you drawn a picture yet?

Answer 2

Nope.

Answer 3

try drawing one and see what you get

Answer 4

Okay :)

Answer 5

i'm assuming QRS and TUV are triangles. are they?

Answer 6

since the problem says that the triangles are equal we can say that 3v+2=7v-6 because of CPCTC

Answer 7

And then what do i do?

Answer 8

if we solve 3v+2=7v-6 we get v=2. If you plug 2 back into the original equations 3v+2 and 7v-6 we get they equal 8. So your answer is C 8. Did that make sense?

Answer 9

@SkiTTleoooo47 did that make sense?

Answer 10

Yes! Thank you :)

Answer 11
