Answer:

Point T is on a line segment SU. Given SU=4x+1, TU=3x, and ST=3x-1, determine the numerical length of SU

Explanation:

By the segment addition rule, length of ST + length TU equals length of SU so 3x -1 + 3x = 4x + 1 6x - 1 = 4x + 1 2x = 2 x = 1 substituting value of x back into formula for length of SU: 4 (1) + 1 = 5
