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.

3. A city planner is measuring the distance of one city block. Which unit of measure should she use: 1 mile, 1 meter, 1/2 inch?
yawa3891 [41]
You should use the 1 mile because the meter and inch is too short to measure the city block and it’ll take really long this is why you should use 1 mile.
