Answer:
D. 3.2
Step-by-step explanation:
Mid-segment Theorem of a triangle states that the Mid-segment in a triangle is half of the third side of the triangle.
Based on this theorem, we have: TV = ½(RS)
TV = 3n - 2
RS = n + 12
Substitute
3n - 2 = ½(n + 12)
Multiply both sides by 2
2(3n - 2) = (n + 12)
6n - 4 = n + 12
Collect like terms
6n - n = 4 + 12
5n = 16
Divide both sides by 5
5n/5 = 16/5
n = 3.2
