Choose a variable to represent one of the unknowns. express the remaining unknowns in terms of the variable you chose in step 1. look for a relationship between the unknowns given in the problem. write an equation. (look for the other relationship given in the problem.) two sides of a triangle are equal in length and double the length of the shortest side. the perimeter of the triangle is 35 inches.

Let's just choose "x" as our variable for the length of a side of the triangle.

Two sides of a triangle are equal in length and double the length of the shortest side.

A triangle has 3 sides. Make the smallest side x then the two equal sides that are double the smallest side are both equal to 2x

The perimeter of the triangle is 35 inches. Perimeter is the sum of all sides.

x + 2x + 2x = 35

5x = 35

x = 7

So the smallest side is 7, and the other two sides are 14.

i think the answer is b
