The farmer should purchase 2 bags of soil for his farm.
<h3>What is Area of rectangle?</h3>
Area of rectangle is the region occupied by a rectangle within its four sides or boundaries. The area of a rectangle depends on its sides.
The shape of the farm, according to the picture is a parallelogram. the total area can be calculated as follows:
Area = b X h
where
b = base
h = height
base = 6.5 + 2.5 = 9.0 yards
height = 6 yards
Area = 6 × 9 = 54 square yards.
40 square yards requires 1 bag of soil .
54 square yards will require ?
cross multiply
Bags required = 54 / 40 = 1.35 bag
Thus, the farmer will require 2 bags of soil for his farm.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Hey there!</em>
<em />
Well to solve for x in,
16x - 7 ≤ -71
We need to single out x.
16x - 7 ≤ -71
+7 to both sides
16x ≤ -64
Divide both sides by 16
x ≤ -4
<em>Hope this helps :)</em>
Whenever you multiply something, you just add it to itself that many times.
ex) 7 × 4 = 7 + 7 + 7 + 7.
Thus n × a = n + n + n + n....a times.
