Step-by-step explanation:
y = kx, where k is a real constant.
When y = 12, x = 5.
=> (12) = (5)k, k = 2.4.
Therefore when y = 30,
x = y/k = (30)/(2.4) = 12.5.
The answer is 12.5.

Words:
Suppose a square is 100%,
50%: the square is divided into two equal parts, and one of them is shaded, therefore it is 50%.
25%: the square is divided into 4 equal parts, and one of them is shaded, therefore it is 25%.
150%: there are two squares, each divided into 2 equal parts, and 3 of them is shadowed, therefore it is 150%.
Cos(44°) = 90/ x
x = 125.1147

the length of the string is 125.1147 feet
I agree, the only 2 that look the most similar is B. and D.
