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

Answer: Joe is 2 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the age of Joe.

Sally is 1 year older than 3 times the age of Joe. It means that the age of Sally is

3x + 1

Chirs is 5 years younger than 6 times the age of Joe. It means that the age of Chris is

6x - 5

If sally and Chris are the same age, it means that

6x - 5 = 3x + 1

6x - 3x = 1 + 5

3x = 6

x = 6/3

x = 2 years

What do I do after I find the implicit differentiation?
Murrr4er [49]

for the implicit integration I got:

1+3y^2y'-y'=0\\y'=-\frac{1}{3y^2-1}

the vertical tangent would at points at which y' goes to infinity.

that happen when the right-hand side has singularities, that is, the denominator is 0:

3y^2-1 =0\\y^2=1/3\\|y|=\sqrt{1/3}\\y=\pm\sqrt{1/3}

so the two points y above have a vertical tangent.

Determine the next step for solving the quadratic equation by completing the square.
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

The solutions are x=\frac{1+\sqrt{7}}{2} and x=\frac{1-\sqrt{7}}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

0=-2x^{2}+2x+3

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

-3=-2x^{2}+2x

Factor the leading coefficient

-3=-2(x^{2}-x)

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side.

-3-0.5=-2(x^{2}-x+0.5^{2})

-3.5=-2(x^{2}-x+0.5^{2})

Rewrite as perfect squares

-3.5=-2(x-0.5)^{2}

7/4=(x-0.5)^{2}

square root both sides

x-0.5=(+/-)\sqrt{\frac{7}{4}}

x-\frac{1}{2}=(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2}

x=\frac{1}{2}(+/-)\frac{\sqrt{7}}{2}

x=\frac{1+\sqrt{7}}{2}

x=\frac{1-\sqrt{7}}{2}
