rs=3x , rt=6x-3 and st=3x.

We are given point s is between r and t points.

So, the end points are r and t.

Because s is between r and t, the sum of rs and st equals rt.

Weo, we can setup an equation as,

rs + st = rt.

Plugging values of rs , st and rt in above equation.

3x + 3x = 6x - 3.

Adding 3x+3x, we get 6x.

6x = 6x - 3

Subtracting 6x from both sides, we get

6x-6x = 6x-6x - 3 .

0=-3.

But that is not possible.

So, we could say, rs + st = rt could not be possible for given values of rs, st and rt, that is rs=3x , rt=6x-3 and st=3x.
