Answer: QR is 8 units long

================================================

Explanation:

R is between Q and S and on segment QS, allowing us to say

QR + RS = QS

because of the segment addition postulate.

-------

Use substitution and solve for QR

QR + RS = QS

QR + 11 = 19

QR = 19 - 11 .... subtracting 11 from both sides

QR = 8
