Answer:

Farmer Anne's land = 173 acres

Farmer Cassius = 519 acres

Farmer Mel = 1,557 acres

Step-by-step explanation:

Total acre = 2,249

Let

Farmer Anne's land = x

Farmer Cassius = 3x

Farmer Mel = 3(3x) = 9x

x + 3x + 9x = 2,249

13x = 2,249

x = 173

Farmer Anne's land = x = 173 acres

Farmer Cassius = 3x

= 3(173)

= 519 acres

Farmer Mel = 3(3x) = 9x

= 9(173)

= 1,557 acres

Therefore,

Farmer Anne's land = 173 acres

Farmer Cassius = 519 acres

Farmer Mel = 1,557 acres

How did I lose 5 points?
PolarNik [594]

x + 4 = 3x - 8, is assuming D is the midpoint, and therefore ED = DB.

all we know is that D is <u>somewhere</u> in EB.


\bf E\stackrel{x+4}{\rule[0.35em]{17em}{0.25pt}}D\stackrel{3x-8}{\rule[0.35em]{10em}{0.25pt}}B&#10;\\\\\\&#10;EB=ED+DB\implies EB=(x+4)+(3x-8)\implies EB=4x-4
