The first side of a triangle is 8 m shorter than the second side. The third side is 4 times as long as the first side. The perimeter is 26 m. Find the length of each side.
1st side is = x-8 2nd side is = x 3rd side is = 4(x-8) Equations - x-8+x+4(X-8)=28 x-8+x+4x-32=28 6x-40=28 6x=68 x = Does is not an equal number.hope this helps, let me know if its right?
