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

\underline{\bf{Given \:equation:-}}

\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow ax^2+by+c=0

\sf Let\:roots\;of\:the\: equation\:be\:\alpha\:and\beta.

\sf We\:know,

\boxed{\sf sum\:of\:roots=\alpha+\beta=\dfrac{-b}{a}}

\boxed{\sf Product\:of\:roots=\alpha\beta=\dfrac{c}{a}}

\underline{\large{\bf Identities\:used:-}}

\boxed{\sf (a+b)^2=a^2+2ab+b^2}

\boxed{\sf (√a)^2=a}

\boxed{\sf \sqrt{a}\sqrt{b}=\sqrt{ab}}

\boxed{\sf \sqrt{\sqrt{a}}=a}

\underline{\bf Final\: Solution:-}

\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow \sqrt{\alpha}+\sqrt{\beta}

\bull\sf Apply\: Squares

\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow (\sqrt{\alpha}+\sqrt{\beta})^2= (\sqrt{\alpha})^2+2\sqrt{\alpha}\sqrt{\beta}+(\sqrt{\beta})^2

\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow (\sqrt{\alpha}+\sqrt{\beta})^2 \alpha+\beta+2\sqrt{\alpha\beta}

\bull\sf Put\:values

\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow (\sqrt{\alpha}+\sqrt{\beta})^2=\dfrac{-b}{a}+2\sqrt{\dfrac{c}{a}}

\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow \sqrt{\alpha}+\sqrt{\beta}=\sqrt{\dfrac{-b}{a}+2\sqrt{\dfrac{c}{a}}}

\bull\sf Simplify

\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow \underline{\boxed{\bf {\sqrt{\boldsymbol{\alpha}}+\sqrt{\boldsymbol{\beta}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{-b}{a}}+\sqrt{2}\dfrac{c}{a}}}}

\underline{\bf More\: simplification:-}

\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow \sqrt{\alpha}+\sqrt{\beta}=\dfrac{\sqrt{-b}}{\sqrt{a}}+\dfrac{c\sqrt{2}}{a}

\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow \sqrt{\alpha}+\sqrt{\beta}=\dfrac{\sqrt{a}\sqrt{-b}+c\sqrt{2}}{a}

\underline{\Large{\bf Simplified\: Answer:-}}

\\ \sf{:}\dashrightarrow\underline{\boxed{\bf{ \sqrt{\boldsymbol{\alpha}}+\sqrt{\boldsymbol{\beta}}=\dfrac{\sqrt{-ab}+c\sqrt{2}}{a}}}}
