Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If point T is on the line SU, then ST+TU = SU. Given TU=4x+1, SU=8, and ST=3x
Substituting the given values into the expression ST+TU = SU
8 = 3x+4x+1
8 = 7x+1
collect like terms;
7x = 8-1
7x = 7
Divide through by 7
7x/7 = 7/7
x = 1
Substitute x = 1 into the expression TU = 4x+1 to get the length of TU
TU = 4(1)+1
TU = 4+1
TU = 5
Hence the length of TU is 5
