The value of y is 5

<h3>How to determine the value </h3>

From the given line, it can be concluded that:

The segment RT is divided into RS and ST

But we have the following parameters

The length of the sides are:

RS=4y+4
ST=3y+4
RT=43

Since RT is RS added to ST:

We have;

RT = RS + ST

substitute the values

43 = 4y + 4 + 3y + 4

collect like terms

43 = 4y + 3y + 4 + 4

Add like terms

43 = 7y + 8

Make '7y' subject of formula

7y = 43 - 8

7y = 35

Make 'y' the subject of formula

y = 35/ 7

y = 5

Thus, the value of y is 5
