What are Arithmetic operations?
Arithmetic operations can also be specified by adding, subtracting, dividing, and multiplying built-in functions. The operator that performs the arithmetic operation is called the arithmetic operator.
Operators which let do a basic mathematical calculation
+ Addition operation: Adds values on either side of the operator.
For example 12 + 2 = 14
- Subtraction operation: Subtracts the right-hand operand from the left-hand operand.
For example 12 -2 = 10
Given VW = 5x-4,
VW = 5x−4,
UV = 2x, and
UW = 5x,
By segment addition postulate: UV + VW = UW
Substituting expressions given for each:
⇒ 2x + 5x − 4 = 5x
⇒ 2x = 4
⇒ x = 4
So, VW = 5(4) - 4
VW = 20 - 4
VW = 16
Hence, the numerical length of VW is 16 units.
