"mu" is unstressed, used only as a clitic (in the second position), while "jemu" is stressed, used in other positions.
- Řekni mu to. - Tell him that // Tell it to him. (neutral)
- Řekni to jemu. - Tell it to him. (not someone else)
- Jemu to řekni. - same as above
In this exercise, if we used "mu" ("Řekli jste mu to?"), we couldn't add "jí" anymore.
There are more pairs like this, for example "ho" and "jeho", or "mi" and "mně".
