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.

(Problem on image.)...
ANEK [815]
Hey there! :) 

In order to the find the missing side length of this triangle, we'll need to use the Pythagorean Theorem! 

That equation is : a² + b² = c²

a = adjacent side

b = long side of rectangle

c = hypotenuse

We're already given the values of both a & c, so let's plug everything in! 

a² + b² = c²  → a = 10 , b = ? , c = 20

(10²) + b² = (20²)

Simplify.

100 + b² = 400

Subtract 100 from both sides.

b² = 400 - 100

Simplify.

b² = 300

Get the square root of b² & 300.

\sqrt{b^2} =  \sqrt{300}

Simplify!

b = 17.3

So, the missing side length is the first answer choice : 17.3

~Hope I helped!~

Which ratio forms a proportion with 25/35 . A. 3/5 B. 15/21 C.24/34 D. 5/11
iogann1982 [59]
In order to find this out, we just needed to find out which one has the same smallest fraction

25 / 35. Divided this by 5 and we will get 5/7 >>> smallest fraction

15/21 . Divided this by 3 and we also will get 5/7 >> smallest fraction

So the answer would be  : B. 15/21 

hope this helps
