C + d = 60 2.5c + 1.75d = 123.75
1 answer:
Answer:
(c, d) = (25, 35)
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the first equation by 2.5 and subtract the second one:
2.5(c +d) -(2.5c +1.75d) = 2.5(60) -(123.75)
0.75d = 26.25 . . . . . . . . . simplify
26.25/0.75 = d = 35 . . . . divide by the coefficient of d
60 -d = c = 25 . . . . . . . . . use the first equation to find c
(c, d) = (25, 35)

Answer:
62.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of animals in a group= 5+3=8 animals
Number of rays=5
Since we only have 5 rays out of the total 8, to express the number of rays as a percentage of the total animals, we divide the number of rays by the total animals then multiply by 100 to express in percentage as needed in the question
Percentage of rays=
Therefore, the percentage is 62.5%
