Question

Using the following image, solve the problems below given that U is the midpoint point of TV.

Answer 1

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that U is the midpoint of TV, then

TU = UV , substitute values

8x + 11 = 12x - 1 ( subtract 12x from both sides )

- 4x + 11 = - 1 ( subtract 11 from both sides )

- 4x = - 12 ( divide both sides by - 4 )

x = 3

Thus

TU = 8(3) + 11 = 24 + 11 = 35

UV = 12(3) - 1 = 36 - 1 = 35
