Answer:

Option D is correct.

VS = 20 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is contained in the attached image to this answer.

From the image attached and the additional information about the triangles, it is evident that that triangle VSW is similar to triangle QSR.

Hence, we can write the ratio as

(VS/QS) = (VW/QR)

VS = 2a

QS = 2 × VS = 2 × 2a = 4a

VW = 2a - 2

QR = 3a + 6

(2a)/(4a) = (2a - 2)/(3a + 6)

Cross multiplying,

2a (3a + 6) = 4a (2a - 2)

3a + 6 = 2 (2a - 2)

3a + 6 = 4a - 4

4a - 3a = 6 + 4

a = 10

VS = 2a = 20 units.

Hope this Helps!!!

What is the equation in point-slope form of a line that passes through the points (−4, −1) and (5, 7) ?
Sergio039 [100]

The point-slope form:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

The formula of a slope:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

We have the points (-4, -1) and (5, 7). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{7-(-1)}{5-(-4)}=\dfrac{7+1}{5+4}=\dfrac{8}{9}\\\\\boxed{y-7=\dfrac{8}{9}(x-5)}
