Point V lies between points U and W on Line segment U W.

A line has points U, V, W. The length between U V is 2 x minus 4. The length between V W is 4 x + 10.

6 units
30 units
36 units

36 units

Work: UV + VW = (2x−4) + (4x+10) = 6x+6 = UW = 9x−9, so 6x+6 = 9x−9 → 3x = 15 → x = 5. Then UW = 9(5)−9 = 36.
