Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: old McDonald has 54 chickens and 2 cows.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of chickens that old McDonald have.
Let y represent the number of cows that old McDonald have.
He counted 56 heads. A chicken and a cow has one head each. It means that
x + y = 56
He counted 116 legs. A chicken has 2 legs and a cow has 4 legs. It means that
2x + 4y = 116 - - - - - - - - -1
Substituting x = 56 - y into equation 1, it becomes
2(56 - y) + 4y = 116
112 - 2y + 4y = 116
- 2y + 4y = 116 - 112
2y = 4
y = 4/2 = 2
x = 56 - y = 56 - 2
x = 54
There was a 125% change in the price of the house.
The changed price was an increase of from the original 100,000 therefore the answer can be concluded to be above 100%.
Anyways, to solve this problem you need to find what 125,000 is OF 100,000, meaning you need to divide. 125,000/100,000=1.25. 1.25 can then be changed into 125%.
