Answer: Corn = 200 acres
Wheat= 400 acres
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of acres of corn = c
Let the number of acres of wheat = w
The Mulder Farm has 600 acres of land allotted for raising corn and wheat. This will be:
c + w = 600
c = 600 - w
Cultivation cost equals:
= 40c + 25w = 18000
Since c = 600 - w, we slot it into the equation
40c + 25w = 18000
40(600 - w) + 25w = 18000
24000 - 40w + 25w = 18000
Collect like terms
24000 - 18000 = 40w - 25w
6000 = 15w
w = 6000/15
w= 400
400 acres of wheat will be planted
Since c + w = 600
c = 600 - 400
c = 200
200 acres of corn should be planted
