None of the available weights of bamboo are sufficient to feed a giant panda for a week. The zookeeper needs to find a supplier that offers a larger quantity of bamboo.
To solve this problem, we need to compare the weight of bamboo the panda eats in a week (7300 pounds) to the different weights of bamboo available:
a. 340 pounds: This is less than the 7300 pounds needed, so the zookeeper cannot buy this weight.
b. 310 pounds: This is also less than the 7300 pounds needed, so the zookeeper cannot buy this weight.
c. 200 pounds: This is significantly less than the 7300 pounds needed, so the zookeeper cannot buy this weight.
d. 225 pounds: This is still far less than the 7300 pounds needed, so the zookeeper cannot buy this weight.
e. 280 pounds: This is also much less than the 7300 pounds needed, so the zookeeper cannot buy this weight.
Therefore, none of the available weights of bamboo are sufficient to feed a giant panda for a week. The zookeeper needs to find a supplier that offers a larger quantity of bamboo.
