You take care of 2 animals, lions and peacocks. Lions eat meat and peacocks eat seed. You have 10 pounds of meat and 5 pounds of seed to split as evenly as possible between 2 weeks. Use an inequality to explain how the animals can survive through 2 weeks. I'm mainly confused about how to split the food in 2 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since no information is given how much an animal will consume per day so we will suppose that each animal will have at least two meals per day so in two weeks which is 14 days will have 28 meals in it so we will make an equality that

Let X be the amount they consume in each meal

for lion

which will give us 0.375 ponds each meal for the lion

similarly for the peacock

that gives us 0.1785 ponds of seed each meal

we can also make the meals once a day and in 14 days we can make 14 meals and in that case the meal will be

for lion it will be 0.750 pounds

for peacock it will be 0.375
