Answer:

C. 125

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Bacteria on day 1 = 5

On day 2, each bacteria got split into 5.

So, number of bacteria on day 2 = 5\times 5 = 25

Now, again on day 3, each of the 25 bacteria got split into additional 5 bacteria.

So, number of of bacteria on day 3 = 25\times 5 =125

Therefore, the population of bacteria on day 3 is 125.

> multiply the second equation by 2 and add it to the first equation.
2(-6x - 7y = -10)
-12x -14y = -20

8x + 14y = 4
-12x - 14y = -20
--------------------
- 4x + 0 = - 16
x = -16/-4
x = 4

> use x = 4 in either equation to find y
8(4) + 14y = 4
32 + 14y = 4
14y = 4 - 32
14y = -28
y = -28/14
y = -2
