Answer 1
Answer: 1. 3 consecutive odd numbers are x, x+2, x+4
     x+x+2+x+4=405
     x+x+x+2+4=405
     3x+6=405
     3x=399
     x=133 (smallest of the numbers)

2. Let the number =x
    5x-7=7x+13
    -7-13=7x-5x
    -20=2x
    x=-10

3. Chris earns 4v, Vesna earns v, Dawn earns v-17
    4v+v+v-17=163
    6v-17=163
    6v=180
    v=$30
   Chris earns 4v=$120
 
4. Ginny is x years old, Percy is x+8 years old
    In 10 years time, Percy will be x+8+10=3x
    x+18=3x
    18=2x
    x=9
    Percy is 9+8 years now=17 years

5. Perimeter of the triangle=sum of its sides
    385=x+2+x+2+x+6 
    385=3x+10
    375=3x
    x=125cm

6. A choc frog costs x. A green frog costs x-11
    2x+3(x-11)=57
    2x+3x-33=57
    5x=90
    x=18 cents
    A choc frog costs 18 cents

In 4 years, harry’s age will be the same as jim’s age is now. in 2 years, jim will be twice as old as harry will be. find their ages now.

Answers

The answer to this question would be:
Jim     =6 years
Harry =2 years

To answer this question, you need to translate the description into a  mathematical equation. If H= Harry's ages and J= Jim's ages, then the equation should be look like this:

1. H+4= J
2. (J+2)= 2(H+2)
     J+2= 2H+4
     J= 2H +2

If you put the 1st and 2nd equation together, the result would be:
H+4= J
H+4= (2H +2)
H-2H= 2-4
-H= -2
H=2

After that insert the H value to either 1st or 2nd equation.
H+4= J
2+4=J
J= 6

Your video membership cost $14 per month for 10 video rentals. Each additional video rental is $2. Write in equation into variables that represent the cost of your video rentals.

Answers

Answer:the equation that represents the cost of your video rentals is y = 14 + 2(x - 10)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of video rentals that you made in a month.

Let y represent the total cost of x video rentals that you make in a month.

Your video membership cost $14 per month for 10 video rentals. Each additional video rental is $2. Therefore, the equation that represents the cost of your video rentals would be

y = 14 + 2(x - 10)

Where x - 10 is representing additional video rental above 10
