S = sally C = Chris J = Joe
sally is one year older than 3 times the age of joe, so
s = 3j + 1
chris is 5 years younger than 6 times the age of jo, so
c = 6j - 5
sally and chris are the same age so
s = c so
3j + 1 = 6j - 5
-3j -3j
1 = 3j - 5
+5 +5
6 = 3j or
3j = 6
3j/3 = 6/3
j = 2
check
s = c
3(2) +1 = 6(2) - 5
6 + 1 = 12 - 5
7 = 7 correct✅

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Let the time flown by the flying carpet be
. Then, we have that
.
We multiply both sides of the equation by
to get
.
We subtract
from both sides to get
.
We divide both sides of the equation by
.
We know that the speed of the flying carpet in still wind is the average of the rates of the speed of the flying carpet with the wind and against the wind.
The speed with wind is
mph.
The speed against wind is
mph.
The speed in still wind is
.
Therefore, the answer is
and we're done!
