Answer:

31

Explanation:

ST + TU+ UV = SV

13+6+ 2x-18 = 4x-29

Combine like terms

2x+1 = 4x-29

Subtract 2x from each side

2x+1-2x = 4x-29-2x

1 = 2x-29

Add 29 from each side

1+29 = 2x-29+29

30 =2x

Divide each side by 2

30/2 = 2x/2

15 =x

We want to find the length of SV

SV = 4x-29

= 4*15-29

= 60-29

= 31
