<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.

If triangle ABC is isosceles and triangle DBE is equilateral what is the measure of angle C
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

43°

Step-by-step explanation:

For triangle ABC:

A = C so all we need to do is to calculate the value of B

The measure of angle ABD is given as 17° so the measure of angle EBC must be 17° as well

Since DBE is an equilateral triangle angle is DBE = 60°

17 + 17 + 60 = 94 this is the measure of angle B

The sum of interior angles in a triangle is equal to 180

A + B + C = 180

A + C + 94 = 180

A + C = 86 since A = C we divide 86 by 2

C = 43°

STatiana [176]
0.5 x 4 = 2 feet / 2 feet in 4 seconds
15 - 2 = 13
New depth: 13 feet

0.4 x 3 = 1.2 feet / 1.2 feet in 3 seconds
13 - 1.2 = 11.8
New depth: 11.8 feet
