To find the perimeter of a triangle, we need to sum up the lengths of all three sides.
The first side has a length of (r-10s) centimeters.
The second side has a length of (3r+2t) centimeters.
The third side has a length of (2t-6s) centimeters.
Adding all three sides together, we get:
(r-10s) + (3r+2t) + (2t-6s)
Combining like terms, we have:
r + 3r - 10s + 2t + 2t - 6s
Further simplifying, we get:
4r - 16s + 4t
Therefore, the expression that represents the perimeter of the triangle is:
4r - 16s + 4t.
