Answer:
- x - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
If a, b, and c the lengths of sides of a triangle, then P = a + b+ c .
a = P - (a + b) = P - a - b
~~~~~~~~~~
a = (4x - 8) - [(2x - 4) + (3x + 8)] =
4x - 8 - (2x - 4 + 3x + 8) =
4x - 8 - 2x + 4 - 3x - 8 =
(we have two groups of like terms, let's combine them)
(4x - 2x - 3x) + ( - 8 + 4 - 8) = ( - x ) + ( - 12) = - x - 12
Check the answer:
(3x + 8) + (2x - 4) + (- x - 12) = 4x - 8
(3x + 8) + (2x - 4) + (- x - 12) = 4x - 8
3x + 8 + 2x - 4 - x - 12 = 4x - 8
4x - 8 = 4x - 8
