The number of female contestants who signed up to compete is; 43.

<h3>What is the number of female contestants?</h3>

Let number of females = x

Let number of males = y.

Hence, it follows from the task content that;

x+y = 50

x-y = 36.

Hence, by adding both equations together in a bid to determine the number of females; we have;

2x = 86

x = 43.

In 1980, the median age of the U.S. population was 30.0; in 2000, the median age was 35.3.
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

y = 0.265x - 494.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let median age be represent by 'a' and time be represent by 't'

In 1980, median age is given 30

which means that

a₁ = 30

t₁ = 1980

In 2000, the median age is given 35.3

which means that.

a₂ = 35.3

t₂ = 2000

The slope 'm' of the linear equation can be found by:

m = (a₂ - a₁) /(t₂ - t₁)

m = (35.3 - 30)/(2000-1980)

m = 0.265

General form of linear equation is given by:

y = mx + c

y = 0.265x +c

Substitute point (1980,30) in the equation.

30 = 0.265(1980) + c

c = -494.7

Hence the the linear equation can be written as:

y = mx + c

y = 0.265x - 494.7
