Answer:
CT = 22
Step-by-step explanation:
J is the midpoint of CT, so the two parts made by placing J are congruent.
CJ = 3x + 8
JT = 6x + 5
Our equation would be:
3x + 8 = 6x + 5
8 - 5 = 6x - 3x
3 = 3x
1 = x
Now, we just plug in x as 1:
3 + 8 = 11
6 + 5 = 11
11 + 11 = 22
So:
CT = 22
Hope this helps!
