Let's give Cindy's age a variable.
Cindy's age = x
Cindy multiplies her age by 5
x(5)
Subtracted by 12
x(5) - 12
Divide by 3
(5x - 12)/3
The result was 16
(5x - 12)/3 = 16
Let's solve
Multiply both sides by 3
(5x - 12) = 48
Open brackets
5x - 12 = 48
Add 12 to both sides
5x = 60
Divide by 5 on both sides to isolate x
x = 12
Cindy is 12 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1.26 kg.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that Mr. Snow bought 90 grams of Christmas candy for each of his 14 grandchildren. We are asked to find the amount of candy bought by Mr. Snow in kilograms.
First of all, we will find the amount of candy in grams by multiplying 90 grams by 14 as:
We know that 1 kilogram is equal to 1000 grams. To convert 1260 grams into kg, we will divide 1260 by 1000 as:
Therefore, Mr. Snow bought 1.26 kilograms of candy.
Answer:
x=7
Step-by-step explanation:
3x+1=4x-6
take the x's in one side and the normal numbers on the other side.
3x-4x= -6-1
-x= -7
the substraction signs are crossed out, therefore
ans: x=7
Answer:
x = 6, y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect with each other at the point of intersection with equal sides across the point of intersection.
- DH = HF ⇒ x + 2 = 2y
- GH = HE ⇒ 4x - 3 = 5y + 1
x + 2 = 2y,
4x - 3 = 5y + 1
x = 2y - 2,
4(2y - 2) - 3 = 5y + 1
x = 2y - 2,
8y - 8 - 3 = 5y + 1
x = 2y - 2,
8y - 11 = 5y + 1
x = 2y - 2,
8y - 5y = 11 + 1
x = 2y - 2,
3y = 12
x = 2y - 2,
y = 4
x = 2*4 - 2,
y = 4
x = 6,
y = 4
