Answer:

Equation : 15x = 270

Where, x = number of days,

Their food will last in 18 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total food = 270 pounds,

Consumption of food per day = 15 pounds

Let x be the number of days,

Then, consumption of food in x days = 15x

∵ Total food will last,

If total consumption = total food

⇒ 15x = 270

Which is the required equation,

Divide both sides of the equation by 15,

We get,

x = \frac{270}{15} = 18

Hence, their food will last in 18 days.

Expand the expression?

Perform indicated multiplication:

7a(2a)+7a(-5)-4(2a)-4(-5)

14a^2-35a-8a+20  combine like terms, ie (-35a-8a)=-43a

14a^2-43a+20

Please help me out!​

Answer:  g = -4  and   h =1     or   g= -1  and h = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

If two exponents have the same base and are multiplied together,  you will keep the base unchange and add the exponents.  

So looking at the equation, the base is 2 for both and they are raised to the powers  g and h, meaning that if  g and h are added together they have  to equal -3.

So find two numbers that their sum is -3.

For example,  -1 and -2 add up to -3, -4 and 1 add up to -3.
