Call Alice's age is a
Betty's age is b
and Clara is c
Follow the threads , we have :
a + b + c = 29 (1)
b = a + 4 (2)
c = b + 6 (3)
Change (3) , (2) to (1)
a + b + c = a + (a + 4) + (b + 6)
<=> a + (a + 4) + (a + 10) = 29
=> 3a + 14 = 29
=> 3a = 15
=> a = 5
So , Alice's age is 5

Call Alice's age: a
Betty's age: b
Clara's age: c
(a,b,c∈∈N*)
According to the theme we have:
a+b+c=29a+b+c=29(1)b−a=4⇒b=a+4b−a=4⇒b=a+4(2)
c−b=6⇒c=b+6⇒c=a+4+6=a+10c−b=6⇒c=b+6⇒c=a+4+6=a+10(3)
Change (2)(3) to (1) we have:
(1)⇔a+b+c=29(1)⇔a+b+c=29a+a+4+a+10=29a+a+4+a+10=29
3a+14=293a+14=29
3a=29−14=153a=29−14=15
a=5a=5(satisfy)
Alice's age: 5 years old

Call Alice's age: a
Betty's age: b
Clara's age: c
(a,b,c\(\in\)N*)
According to the theme we have:
\(a+b+c=29\)(1)\(b-a=4\Rightarrow b=a+4\)(2)
\(c-b=6\Rightarrow c=b+6\Rightarrow c=a+4+6=a+10\)(3)
Change (2)(3) to (1) we have:
\(\left(1\right)\Leftrightarrow a+b+c=29\)\(a+a+4+a+10=29\)
\(3a+14=29\)
\(3a=29-14=15\)
\(a=5\)(satisfy)
Alice's age: 5 years old

\(2^3.x^2=32\)
<=> \(8.x^2=32\)
<=> \(x^2=32:8=4\)
We see: \(2^2=4\) => \(x=2\)
So the value of \(x\) is: \(2\)

NP is tangent to circle center O at N,so \(NP\perp ON\) at N
Assume that the circle center O and the circle center P touch each other at M, then O,M,P are collinear.
=> OP = OM + MP = 16 + 4 = 20 (cm)
Applying the Pythagoras theorem to the right \(\Delta ONP\),we have :
\(NP=\sqrt{OP^2-ON^2}=\sqrt{20^2-16^2}=\sqrt{144}=12\left(cm\right)\)
So,the answer is 12 cm

Ta has: abcabc = abc000 + abc
= Abc x 1000 + abc
= Abc. (1000 +1)
= Abc. 1001
= Abc. 7. 11. 13
The abcabc of the abc with 7; 11; 13 => abcabc divide by 7; 11 and 13

The sum of books : 6 + 3 + 7 = 16 (books)
The number of math books is : \(3+7=10\left(books\right)\)
The probability is : \(\dfrac{10}{16}=\dfrac{5}{8}\)
Answer : \(\dfrac{5}{8}\)

a - b = 8 => a = 8 + b
=> ab = (b + 8)b = 48
By replacing b by 1, 2, 3, 4, ... respectively, we have b = 4
=> a = 12 => a + b = 12 + 4 = 16
