Answer:

p = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

the midsegment WY is half the measure of VZ , that is

WY = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] VZ ( substitute values )

p - 21 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] (p - 7) ← multiply through by 2 to clear the fraction

2p - 42 = p - 7 ( subtract p from both sides )

p - 42 = - 7 ( add 42 to both sides )

p = 35
