I believe it should be 60 animals were in there before. I just simply took different numbers on my calculator and multiplied by 80% until I got 48. Meaning 80% of 60 is 48. Let me know if this was right.

Y = 5 - 3x....so sub in 5 - 3x for y in the other equation

5x - 4y = -3
5x - 4(5 - 3x) = -3.....distribute the -4 thru the parenthesis
5x - 20 + 12x = -3...add 20 to both sides
5x + 12x = -3 + 20...combine like terms
17x = 17...divide both sides by 17
x = 17/17
x = 1

now sub 1 in for x into either of the original equations to find y
y = 5 - 3x
y = 5 - 3(1)
y = 5 - 3
y = 2

check...
5x - 4y = -3
5(1) - 4(2) = -3
5 - 8 = -3
-3 = -3 (correct)

so ur solution is (1,2)

Answer:

First set: 0.95. Second set: 0.86. Third set: 0.88.

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine that these are not decimals, they are regular numbers (for example: 0.88 is turned into 88). You would determine which one is the greatest depending on which one is higher (like 44 is higher than 32). Therefor the first set: 0.95 the second set: 0.86 the third set: 0.88.
