Answer 1

x = # of days

y = total calories

Simba = 1000 + 140x = y

Cuddles = 2650 - 190x = y

Let's set both of these equations equal to each other

1000 + 140x = 2650 - 190x

Add 190x to both sides and subtract 1000 from both sides.

330x = 1650

Divide each side by 330

x = 5

After 5 days, they will be consuming the same amount of calories.

To find out how many calories they will be consuming, let's plug 5 into our Simba equation.

1000 + 140(5) = y

Multiply 140 by 5

1000 + 700 = y

Simplify

1700 = y

They will be consuming 1,700 calories each day.
