Answer :

Answer:

150

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of ZY to SW is 16:24, meaning it is 2:3, so all of the sides of RST are 1.5 times as long as RZX.

RZ = 28, so RS = 42

RX = 40, so RT = 60

ZX= ZY + XY and since they are the same length, ZX = 32, making ST = 48

The perimeter is 42 + 60 + 48 = 150
