Question

HELP PLZ!!!!- In 2012, on average, about 9.46 × 10^-1 pound of potatoes was produced for every 2.3 × 10^-5 power acre harvested. How many pounds of potatoes on average were produced for each acre harvested?

Answer 1

Answer:  The answer is 41.13 pounds (approx.).

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that the average production of potatoes in 2012 was 0.946 pounds for every 0.000023 power acre harvested. We need to calculate the pounds of potatoes produced on average for each acre harvested.

For that, we need to divide the pounds of potatoes by number of acres harvested.

In 0.000023 acre harvested, ponds of potatoes = 0.946 ponds.

Therefore, in 1 acre harvested, pounds of potatoes is given by

$p=\dfrac{0.946}{0.000023}=41.13~\textup{(approx.)}$

Thus, the answer is 41.13 pounds (approx.).
