A triangle has a perimeter of 16x + 4. If Side 1 is 3x + 2, Side 2 is 8x + 7, what is the measure of Side 3?

Answer:

5x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the missing side, add the two sides together and subtract them from the perimeter.

side 1 + side 2

3x + 2 + 8x + 7

combine like terms

11x + 9

Subtract from the perimeter

16x + 4 - (11x + 9)

rewrite as an addition problem, so you need to change the signs inside the parentheses.

16x + 4 + (-11x -9)

Now combine like terms

5x - 5
