The line VS is middle line of that trapezoid, so you know that it is
VS= (WR+UT)/2
so we will get that it is:
<span>40= (x^2+2 +2x^2+3)/2
x = 5
Therefore,
x^2 + 2
5^2 + 2
25 +2
27 <----- OPTION 2
Hope this answers the question.</span>
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 4 + 7x + 16 = 110
10x = 90
x = 9
therefore, Sam = $31 and Tessa = $79
