Answer 2

The equation that represents the given statement is
`x=3(x-6)`

Explanation:

Cindy's age x, is 3 times her age 6 years ago

Cindy's age is x

6 years ago Cindy's age is x-6 , 6 years before we subtract 6 from years

Cindy's age x, is 3 times her age 6 years ago

Cindy's age x, is 3 times x-6

3 times x-6 is
`3(x-6)`

Cindy's age x, is
`3(x-6)`

`x=3(x-6)`

The equation that represents the given statement is
`x=3(x-6)`
