Answer:

a

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment  RT is a perpendicular bisector and means Δ RSU is isosceles, then the 2 legs are congruent, that is

RS = RU , substitute values

8x = 6x + 5 ( subtract 6x from both sides )

2x = 5 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 2.5

Thus

RU = 6x + 5 = 6(2.5) + 5 = 15 + 5 = 20 → a
