Step-by-step explanation:
Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Algebraic Equations.
To solve this problem we are going to need to create an Algebraic Equation to find the final price (x). Since we do not have the total amount of bushels we will use variable T to represent this. Therefore we can use the following Algebraic Equation to find the expected profit the farmer makes.
The above formula gives us the expected profit for the farmer (x)

Answer:
$996
Step-by-step explanation:
The rectangular plot has an area that is the product of its length and width. We are given the width as 12 feet, and the area as 240 ft², so we can find the length from ...
... A = L×W
... 240 ft² = L×(12 ft)
... 240 ft²/(12 ft) = L = 20 ft
Opposite sides of the rectangle are the same length, so the cost of fence for a side of a given length will be the sum of the costs of the opposites sides.
The 12 ft side has one segment that is $18 per foot, and one that is $15 per foot. For the 20 ft sides, both are $15 per foot. Then the total cost can be figured from ...
... (12 ft)·($18/ft + $15/ft) + (20 ft)·($15/ft +$15/ft) = 12·$33 +20·$30 = $996
