Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Since RT bisects QRS

1/2  QRS = TRS

1/2 ( 9x+214) = -9x+53

Multiply each side by 2

9x +214 = -18x+ 106

Add 18x from each side

9x +214+18x = 106

27x +214 = 106

Subtract 214 from each side

27x = 106-214

27x =-108

Divide by 27

27x/27 = -108/27

x = -4

TRS = -9x+53

     =-9 *-4 +53

     = 36+ 53

    =89
