Hey there!
Tom's age to Mary's is 3:4; an equivalent ratio is 15:x (x symbolizes Mary's age).
To solve for this, we need to divide our proportions. By that, I mean divide Tom's older age by his younger age. If we do so, we should get a scale factor that we can multiply Mary's younger age by.
15 / 3 = 5
This means that the scale factor of the ages is 5.
x / 4 = 5 (Solving for Mary's unknown age.)
To solve for x, multiply both sides by 4.
x/4 * 4 = x
5 * 4 = 20
x = 20
Mary's age is 20.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The radius of a circle is always half the radius.
Thus, in this case, the radius is (1/2)(34 in) = 17 in.
The "how far" question is answerable by finding the circumference of the wheel. The circumference, C, is found by calculating C = πd, where d is the diameter of the circle in question.
Here, C = (34 in)π, which comes out to 106.81 inches. The bike will move 106.81 inches forward if the wheel turns once.
If the wheel turns 5 times, the total distance traveled is 5 times the circumference, or 5(106.81 in) = 534.07 in.
