Answer: 80

=====================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

Since QS is bisecting angle PQR, we have two identical triangles (aka congruent triangles)

The sides PS and RS are congruent corresponding pieces

PS = RS

6b-4 = 10b-60

6b-10b = -60+4

-4b = -56

b = -56/(-4)

b = 14

Therefore,

  • PS = 6b-4 = 6(14)-4 = 84-4 = 80
  • RS = 10b-60 = 10(14)-60 = 140-60 = 80
