Martina is currently 12 years older than her cousin Joey. In 4 years she will be 3 times as old
as Joey. Use this information to answer the following questions.

= Let Martina's cousin's age be = n

= Let her age be = n+12

After four years,

Cousin's age = n+4

Her age = n+12+4=n+16

But according to the question her age = 3(n+4) = 3n+12

Thus,

3n+12=n+16

3n-n=16-12

2n=4

n=4/2

Thus ,

Her cousin's present age = n = 2

Her cousin's present age = n = 2Her present age = n+12 = 2+12=14

-13

step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=2x-5 for f(-4)

f(-4)   means let x=-4

f(-4) = 2(-4) -5

f(-4) =-8-5

      = -13

pentagon

step-by-step explanation:

the coordinates   a(5, -2), b(3,-1),c(-4,-4) d(-3,8) and e(-1,4) forms the vertices of the polygon when they are connected in order.

in order to classify that which polygon is it with the given coordinates, first count the number of vertices and then count the number of sides it can make with these vertices.

since, the given coordinates have five vertices, therefore, it will make five sides. moreover, pentagon is regular in nature therefore it will be convex.

now, a polygon with five sides is known as pentagon, therefore, the given polygon is the pentagon.
