4x + 3x + 11 = 60
7x + 11 = 60 (Combine like terms)
7x = 49 (60-11)
x = 7 (49/7)

4x
4 (7)
28

Answer : The value of line RS is, 28

Step-by-step explanation :

As we are given that:

Line RT = 60

Line RS = 4x

Line ST = 3x + 11

From the given line we conclude that:

Line RT = Line RS + Line ST

Now put all the given value in this expression, we get:

60 = 4x + (3x + 11)

60 = 4x + 3x + 11

60 = 7x + 11

7x = 60 - 11

7x = 49

x = 7

Line RS = 4x = 4 × 7 = 28

Line ST = 3x + 11 = 3×7 + 11 = 21 + 11 = 32

Therefore, the value of line RS is, 28
