The problem statement for 1(a) contains contradictory information. Specifically, using the given values for "only Algebra" and "Algebra" leads to x=6x=6. However, when x=6x=6 is used to calculate the number of students studying Statistics, it results in a number greater than the total class size, or it contradicts other given information.

To proceed, I will make the following assumption: The values for "only Algebra", "Algebra", "both Algebra and Statistics", and "neither" are consistent, and we will derive xx from these. The stated number of students for "Statistics" (10x+1310x+13) will be considered inconsistent and will be recalculated based on the derived xx and other consistent information
