The triangle below has a total perimeter of 450 cm. :
picture of a triangle with sides 128 and 150. Third side unknown
Write an equation and solve it to find the length of the longest side of the triangle.
128x + 150 = 450; x = 2.34 cm
x + 278 = 450; x = 172 cm
2x + 278 = 450; x = 86 cm
150x + 128 = 450; x = 2.15 cm

a.128x + 150 = 450; x = 2.34 cm
b.x + 278 = 450; x = 172 cm
c.2x + 278 = 450; x = 86 cm
d. 150x + 128 = 450; x = 2.15 cm

a+b+c = perimeter

okay?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
128+ 150+x = 450
so x = ?
