Answer:

u = 56

Step-by-step explanation:

the midsegment QS is half the length of the third side PT , that is

QS = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] PT ( substitute values )

u - 28 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] u ( multiply through by 2 to clear the fraction )

2u - 56 = u ( subtract u from both sides )

u - 56 = 0 ( add 56 to both sides )

u = 56
