<h2><em>If you put and label the three points in a line, you will see that RS + ST = RT.
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>Then you only need to substitue with the expressions given for RS and ST to find RT.
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>RT = x +1 + 2x - 2 = 3x - 1
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>Also, RT = 5x - 5
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>Then, 3x - 1 = 5x - 5
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>5x - 3x = 5 - 1
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>2x = 4
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><em>x = 4/2 = 2
</em></h2><h2><em>
</em></h2><h2><u><em>X=2</em></u></h2>
Answer:
