The value of RS in the line segment is 20

To solve for RS :

From the line segment attached :

The information given is :

RS = 3x - 16

ST = 4x - 8

RT = 60

RT = RS + ST

60 = 3x - 16 + 4x - 8

60 = 7x - 24

60 + 24 = 7x

84 = 7x

Divide both sides by 7

84/7 = x

x = 12

RS = 3x - 16

RS = 3(12) - 16

RS = 36 - 16

RS = 20

HENCE, RS = 20
