Answer:The length of the third side 2.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

We already know the length of two side but we don’t know the length of one side so we will represent it by b and we know they three lengths add up to 12b+5.

4b + 3b+15 +b =12b + 5

Solve for b.

8b +15=12b +5

-8b -8b

15+4b +5

-5 -5

4b/4=10/4

B=2.5

So the length of the third side is 2.5

4(2.5) + 3(2.5)+15+2.5=12(2.5)+5

35=35
