Answer: Male population = 26,000

               Female population = 24,000

Step-by-step explanation: Male population = X

                                             Female population = Y

               x+y=50,000

               y=50,000-x-(1st equation)

Again (x+x X 5%) + (y+y X 3%) = 52,020

-> x+5x/100 + y+3y/100 = 52020

->  100x+5x+100y+3y =52020

   ________________

                100

-> 105x+103y = 52020-( 2nd Equation)

Putting Eq 1 into 2 ,

105x+103 ( 50,000-x)= 52,020

-> 105x + 5,150,000-103x = 52,020

->2x = 52,020-5,150,000

->2x = 52,000

    x = 26,000 (Male population)

    y = 50,000-26,000

       = 24,000 (Female population)
