Answer:

11 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

If four brothers have the average age 6, then the sum of their ages is

4\cdot 6=24

years.

Let x years be the age of sister. If four brothers and their sister have the average age 7, then

\dfrac{24+x}{5}=7.

Multiply this equation by 5:

24+x=35\Rightarrow x=35-24=11.

The sister is 11 years old.

Five times the smallest of three consecutive odd integers is seven more than twice
Fantom [35]

Answer:

5, 7, 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information given we get:

5x-7=2z

x+2=y\\y+2=z\\x+4=z

5x-7=2(x+4)\\5x-7=2x+8\\

<em>Add 7 to both sides</em>

5x=2x+15

<em>Subtract 2x from both sides</em>

3x=15

<em>Divide both sides by 3</em>

x=5

Using these equations:

x+2=y\\y+2=z\\x+4=z

and

x=5

We get:

x=5\\y=7\\z=9
