Answer:

20

Explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

we know that

If the figures are similar by SSS Similarity Theorem, then the ratio of its corresponding sides must be proportional

so

(PQ)/(AB)=(PR)/(AC)

substitute the given values

(y)/(10)=(28)/(14)

solve for y

$y=10(2)\\y=20\ units$
