It can't be 10t because load is share by U2L3 component also. If the inclined portion joins L2U3 instead of U2L3 then it will be 10T.

Yes, it is 5T compression.

Yes, it is 5 T compression by the method of joint.

10T Compression is the correct answer. I too agree.

Answer is 15T because there is already 10T and resolved force is 5; reaction=15T, SF at U2= 10+10-15= 5T, resolved force 5T+ already in member 10T = 15T.

@All.
The force in U2L2 is 5T which behaves as a compression member.
