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.

Find the $x$-intercept of the line $3x - 5y = 7.$
kotegsom [21]

The x-intercept of the line 3x - 5y = 7 is at point ( 7/3, 0 ).

<h3>What is the x-intercept of the line?</h3>

Given the function;

  • 3x - 5y = 7
  • x-intercept ?

X-intercept occurs on the graph when y=0. Hence, to determine x-intercept, we substitute in 0 for y and solve for x.

3x - 5y = 7

3x - 5(0) = 7

3x - 0 = 7

3x = 7

x = 7/3

Hence, we have a point ( 7/3, 0 ).

The x-intercept of the line 3x - 5y = 7 is at point ( 7/3, 0 ).

victus00 [196]
Given that a coupon for $15 off will be applied on purchases over $100, the given discounted price of the jacket is $203. Since this is the discounted price, then it should be the price after the coupon has been used. To find the retail (or original) price, we simply add 15 back to 203. So the retail price should be $218.
