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
