The perimeter of an object is equal to its sides added up.  Because this is a triangle, it will have 3 equal sides.  Since the triangle has 3 equal sides, its perimeter will be equal to one of its side lengths * 3.  

Because the perimeter will be equal to one of its side lengths * 3, x is equal to one of the triangle's side lengths.

X is the variable for the length of the sides.

Because a equalilateral ∆ has 3 equal sides, they can be represented by one term (x)

Evaluate the expression for the given value of the variables.
Rudik [331]

Since c=15 and d=3, we replace the c and d variables with 15 and 3.

0.5x15-1.7x3

0.5x15=7.5

1.7x3=5.1

Now subtract.

7.5-5.1=2.4
