m∠RSV = 3x + 5, m∠RST = 8x - 14       <em>given</em>

m∠RSV ≅ m∠VST                                 <em>definition of segment bisector</em>

m∠RSV + m∠VST = m∠RST                 <em>angle addition postulate</em>

(3x + 5) + (3x + 5) = (8x - 14)                  <em>substitution</em>    

6x + 10 = 8x - 14                                    <em>simplify (added like terms)</em>

       10 = 2x - 14                                    <em>subtraction property of equality</em>

      24 = 2x                                           <em>addition property of equality</em>

      12 = x                                              <em>division property of equality</em>

Answer: x = 12
