<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: 18x + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Step #1: Determine the length of each side.
The polygon is regular, so all the sides are equal. Thus, all sides measure 3x+2.
Step #2: Determine the number of sides in the polygon.
This polygon is identified as a hexagon meaning it consists of 6 sides.
Step #3: Set up an expression and distribute.
(Number of sides) x (Length of each side)
(6)(3x+2)
- 6 times 3x equals positive 18x
- 6 times 2 equals positive 12
So, the answer is 18x + 12.
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance is given by
d = sqrt( (x2-x1) ^2 + ( y2-y1) ^2)
Since the x values are the same
d = sqrt( ( y2-y1) ^2)
d = sqrt( (( -6 - 10)^2))
d = sqrt((-16) ^2)
d = 16
We can also just find the number of squares between the points since the x value is the same.
10 - -6
10+6
16
