Your equation is correct for consecutive even or consecutive odd numbers. For consecutive numbers, use n, n+1 as you want to very next number or one more than the n.
Thus. .. n+n+1=29
2n=29-1=28
n=28/2=14
n+1=15
Answer: Ronaldo of Brazil 15
Gerd Mueller of Germany 14
First you want to combine like terms. on the first equation we can combine 2x+x=3x. So now we have 3x-3. On the right side we can combine 12+1 so we now have -x+13. Now we will take add an x to -x so it's 0 but we have to do it to the other side as well so now we have 4x-3=13. now we will add three to -3 to make it 0 but again we have to do it to the other side. Now we have 4x=16. We want to figure out what x is so we now divide 4x by 4 so we are just left with x but we need to do it to the other side so your answer is x=4
Yes it will, they are the same value just in diff locations

Answer: 1/3</h3>
===================================================
Explanation:
A = multiples of 5 between 1 and 30
A = {5,10,15,20,25,30}
B = multiples of 6 between 1 and 30
B = {6,12,18,24,30}
There are 6 items in set A and 5 items in set B. This gives 6+5 = 11 items overall; however, notice that "30" shows up twice. So we have to subtract off 1 to account for this. This means there are 11-1 = 10 unique values that are either a multiple of 5, a multiple of 6, or a multiple of both. This is out of 30 numbers in the set {1, 2, 3, ... , 29, 30}
The probability we want is 10/30 = 1/3
