A triangle has one side that measures x, another side that measures 2x, and a third side that measures 5 less than x. The perimeter is 31 inches. Which equation would you use to find the value of x? x+ 2x+x- 5 = 31 x+ 2x+x+ 5 = 31 x+ 2x-x- 5 = 31 x+ 2x-x+ 5 = 31

sum of sides = perimeter

OpenStudy (anonymous):
