I'll do #4 so you are on the right track, and then you do #5 through #8 for me to check!
1. Mon frère a vingt-neuf ans. NOTE: Although the English is "My brother IS 29 years old." the French must be "My brother HAS 29 years!" With AGE, you must use AVOIR (j'ai, tu as, il/elle/on a, nous avons, vous avez, ils/elles ont) regardless of the English. That's called an IDIOM. That means "it's said that way, whether you like it or n ot!"
