So,

"The sum of three times a number"
3n +

"and 12"
3n + 12

"is 20"
3n + 12 = 20

Subtract 12 from both sides.
3n = 8

Divide both sides by 3.
n =  \frac{8}{3} \ or\ 2 \frac{2}{3}

Answer:

6\sqrt{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

In any right triangle, the Pythagorean theorem states:

a^2+b^2=c^2, where a and b are two legs of the triangle and c is the hypotenuse.

Plugging in given values, we have:

12^2+VU^2=18^2,\\144+VU^2=324,\\VU^2=180,VU=\sqrt{180}=\sqrt{36}\cdot \sqrt{5}=\boxed{6\sqrt{5}}
