Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
If the base of the exponential term is greater than 1, it represents growth.
If the base of the exponential term is less than 1, it represent decay.

416.67 pounds of food should be given all five lions each day
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that, three adult lions together eat 250 pounds of food a day
Thus, 3 adult lions = 250 pounds of food per day
Two more adult lions joined the group and ate food at the same rate as the original three
Now number of adult lions = 3 adult lions + 2 adult lions = 5 adult lions
Let "x" be the food ate by 5 adult lions
Thus we can say,
3 adult lions = 250 pounds of food per day
5 adult lions = "x" pounds of food per day
This forms a proportion and we can solve the sum by cross multiplying
Thus 416.67 pounds of food should be given all five lions each day
