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

If the student is a domain/inout and the hair color is the range/output how is these two set of relation not a function?
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

A function is a relation that maps inputs from a set called the domain, into outputs from a set called the range.

Such that each input can be mapped into only one output.

So for example, if we have a relation that maps the input 2 into two different values:

f(2) = 4

f(2) = 8

Then this is not a function.

In the case of the problem, we have a student as the input, and the hair color as the output.

So we will have something like:

f(student) = blond

And if this student decides to change his/her hair color to red?

Then the function becomes:

f(student) = red

So for the same input, we had two different outputs, which means that this is not a function.

We also could have the case where a given student has two colors (Californian for example)

Where again, we would see two different outputs for one single input.

Please help ASAP!
Oliga [24]
The age of the students is about 0.67 years away from the 13.3 years. 

The Mean Absolute Deviation is the average distance away from the mean. For the last choice, you should select more variable. Since the average is higher, there is a greater distance between the points and the mean.
