<span>1. Martina is given to be 14 years older than Joey who is x years old. Hence, the age of Martina can be expressed as,
x + 14
2. If Joey's current age is x then in 5 years he will become x+5 years old.
3. Martina's age will be her current age added with 5 making it, x+14+5 or x + 19.
4. The equation that would best represent the given scenario in this item is:
x + 19 = 3(x + 5)
5. From the given above, the value of x is equal to 2. This is Joey's current age.
6. The current age of Martina is x + 14 which is equal to 16.</span>

Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
a straight line is 180, 180-40=140
Answer:
86
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Perimeter of WXY = WSY+WRX+XY</u>
<em>--> WSY = SY x 2</em>
--> WSY = 16 x 2 = 32
<em>Since it is an isosceles triangle, WRX = WSY</em>
--> WRX = 32
<em>--> Draw a straight line from W to XY to divide it into two halves assuming it to be point A. This would form a right angle triangle of WAX.</em>
<em>--> Solve it using the cos theta rule</em>
--> Angle = Angle X = 70°
Hypotenuse = WRX = 32
Adjacent = WA = ?
<em>--> Cos (Angle) = Adjacent/Hypotenuse</em>
Cos (70) = WA/32
WA = 10.9 rounded off to 11
--> WA=AY= 11
--> XY = WA + AY = 11+11 = 22
<em>--> Perimeter = WSY+WRX+XY</em>
Perimeter = 32+32+22
Perimeter = 86
Therefore, the perimeter of WXY is 86.
You'll set the two expressions equal to 95.
So 2x+119=95
Then 2x=-24
Finally x=-12
