Question

Point Tis on line segment SU. Given ST = 4x – 4,

Answer 1

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

$TU=10\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Point T is on line segment SU (between point S and point U)

so

$SU=ST+TU$-----> by addition segment postulate

substitute the given values and solve for x

$5x+1=(4x-4)+(4x-10)$

$5x+1=8x-14$

$8x-5x=1+14$

$3x=15$

$x=5$

Find the length of TU

$TU=4x-10$

substitute the value of x

$TU=4(5)-10$

$TU=10\ units$
