Question

Ixl b.5 additive property of length

Answer 1

Answer:

The length of segment SU is 16.8 units

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question

• T is a point on the line segment SU

• That means T divides SU segment into two parts ST and TU

• SU = ST + TU

Let us use this equation to solve the question

∵ The length of ST is 10.6 units

∵ The length of TU is 6.2 units

→ Substitute them in the equation above

∴ SU = 10.6 + 6.2

∵ .6 + .2 = .8

∵ 10 + 6 = 16

∴ 10.6 + 6.2 = 16.8

∴ SU = 16.8 units

The length of segment SU is 16.8 units
