We take the size of the farm 'a' and multiply it by 36 to get the number of bushels of corn 'b'.
-----------------------------------
Part B
The 36 means there are 36 times more bushels of corn compared to the size of the farm in acres
For example, if the size is 2 acres then b = 36*a b = 36*2 b = 72 yielding 72 bushels of corn
-----------------------------------
Part C
Along the first row you should have: 25 and 30 in the missing blanks (over 900 and 1080 respectively)
You find this by dividing the value of b over 36 eg: b/36 = 900/36 = 25
-------
Then along the bottom row you should have the following for the blanks: 0, 360, 1800
These values are found by multiplying the 'a' value by 36 eg: if a = 10 then b = 36*a = 36*10 = 360
-----------------------------------
Part D
Plot any two points you want from the table back in part C So plot say (0,0) and (10,360). Then draw a straight line through those two points.
-----------------------------------
Part E
The point (30,1080) means a = 30 and b = 1080 So if the farm is 30 acres, then it can produce 1080 bushels of corn
Notice how b = 36*a b = 36*30 <<-- replace 'a' with 30 b = 180 And how this matches up with the fourth column of the table in part C. So you can use this part to get a hint of how to fill out the table (or at least know what one column looks like)
If p= 38 You need four sides to equal that 11 is length so that means two sides are 11 11+11= 22 So that means you need two more equal numbers that will finish making up the 22 38-22= 16 But two sides make up 16 16 divides by 2 is 8 So THE WIDTH IS 8
