Step-by-step explanation:
Im confused
First find out how many more inches it needs to grow, 54-37.5; It needs to grow 16.5 more inches. If it grows 3 inches a year then you have to do 16.5/3; 5.5. It will take 5.5 or 5 1/2 more years to grow to 54 inches.
The equation is 314 = 1,200 - 240x
1,200 is the number of M&M's it starts with
The problem said the family eats 1/5th of the candy every day
1/5 of 1,200 is 240
It is a -240 because the amount of m&m's is getting fewer each day
The x stands for the number of days
Sorry but I'm not sure if I could answer your problem exactly
The answer is 3.69 days
Because there isn't an exact day that there would exactly 314 M&M's left
