Answer 2

x = 2.5y

Explanation:

If a cow can give 5 gallons of milk after eating 2 pounds of grass.

Let's consider 'x' is the number of pounds of grass it eats and 'y' is the number of gallons of milk the cow gives.

Hence,

5y = 2x

We will simplify it to get what x equal to y by dividing 2 on both side we find,

x = 2.5y

x is equal to 2.5 y

By eating 1 pound of grass cow can give 2.5 gallons of milk.
