it's kinda really complex you have animals like snakes evolution says they used to have legs how can this be proven? This is proven by vestigial structures as some snakes like certain pythons still have legs however, they are underdeveloped and are used for nothing. Whales have pelvis bones this may not seems special but it is because every chordate that has ever walked on land has one thing in common and that's a pelvis this along with other data gathered really concrete the idea of evolution into reality

a man is twice as old as his son.Five years ago the ratio of their ages was 9:4.Find the sum of their ages​
elena-s [515]

Answer:

75years

Explanation:

Let the Father's age be represented by 2x

Let the Son's age be represented by x

Five years ago;

Man's age will be = 2x - 5

Son's age will be = x - 5

If the ratio of their ages five years ago was 9:4, then;

2x - 5/x-5 = 9/4

4(2x - 5) = 9(x - 5)

8x - 20 = 9x - 45

- Collect like terms

-20 + 45 = 9x - 8x

25 = x

Hence, the son's age = 25 years

If x = 25, the father's age (2x) will be 2 × 25 = 50years

The sum of their ages will be = 25years + 50years = 75years
