<h3>Answer:</h3>

25

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Let w represent the weight of the animal in pounds, and d the age in days. The problem statement tells us ...

... w = 75 +2d

We want to find d when w > 125.

... 75 +2d > 125 . . . . . substitute the above expression for w

... 2d > 50 . . . . . . . . . subtract 75

... d > 25 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The animal will weigh more than 125 pounds when it is more than 25 days old.
