Answer 6

start by setting up some equations based on the information given:

Let's say that Sylvia's current age is "S" and Stacy's current age is "T".

From the first piece of information, we know that:

S = T + 12

And from the second piece of information, we know that:

S = 5T

Now we can use substitution to solve for T:

5T = T + 12

4T = 12

T = 3

So Stacy is currently 3 years old. We can use this information to solve for Sylvia's age:

S = 5T

S = 5(3)

S =

so Sylvia is how old
