X, y, z denote children's movies, western movies, and horror movies, respectively. The related system of equations is formed and solved.

\left\{\begin{matrix} \qquad\qquad\ \dfrac{60}{100}x + \dfrac{50}{100}y =\dfrac{30}{100}(x+y+z)\\ \dfrac{20}{100}x+ \dfrac{60}{100}y+ \dfrac{60}{100}z= \dfrac{1}{2}(x+y+z) \\ \ \ \ x+100=y \end{matrix} \right.\

Simplifying the system of equations, we have

\left\{\begin{matrix} 3x + 2y -3z=0\\ -3x+ y+ z= 0 \\ \ \ \ x+100=y \end{matrix} \right.\ \ \Longrightarrow \ \left\{\begin{matrix} 5x-3z=-200\\ -2x+ z= -100 \end{matrix} \right.\

\ \ \  5x-3z=-200\\\underline{-6x+3z=-300} \ \Rightarrow \ x=500\\\ \ -x+0= \ 500

                                       y&=500+100=600\\ z&=3(500)-600=900

The video store has 500 children's movies, 600 westerns and 900 horror movies.

James is six years older than lousie. Eight years from now, James will be 4 times older than loise was 4 years ago. What is the
weeeeeb [17]

Answer: 26 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = current age of Louise  (in years).

Then current  age of James =  x+6

Eight years from now, James's age = x+6+8= x+14

4 years ago, Louise's age = x-4

According to the question

x+14 = 4(x-4)

⇒ x+14 = 4x-16

⇒ 4x-x = 16+14

⇒ 3x = 30

⇒ x= 10 = current age of Louise  (in years).

current  age of James =  10+6 = 16 years

Sum of current ages = 16+10=26 years.

hence, the sum of the current ages is 26 years.
