A farmer grows corn, tomatoes, and sunflowers on a 320-acre farm. This year, the farmer wants to plant twice as many acres of to
svet-max [94.6K]
Set it up with variables; tomatoes=t, sunflowers=s, corn=c

320=t+s+c

This year;
t=2s   
c=t+40

so, replace 2s for t; c=2s+40 

now we can put those factors in for 320=t+c+s

320= 2s+2s+40+s
(SIMPLIFY)---> 320=5s+40----> 5s+280----> s=56 

now incorporate the s value into the other equations. 

c=2s+40----> c=56(2)=40 ----> c=152 
t=2s -----> t=2(56) ----> t=112

TOMATOES= 112 acres
CORN= 152 acres
SUNFLOWERS= 56 acres

To check your work: 320=t+s+c ----> 320=112+156+56

b) Centimetres of snow that accumulate per hour = 5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete Question

We can calculate the depth d of snow, in centimeters, that accumulates in Harper's yard during the first h hours of a snowstorm using the equation d=5h.

a) How many hours does it take for 1 centimeter of snow to accumulate in Harper's yard? hours

b) How many centimeters of snow accumulate per hour? centimeters

Solution

The depth of snow, d, in centimetres that accumulates in Harper's yard in h hours is given d = 5h

a) Number of hours it takes 1 centimetre of snow to form in Harper's yard.

d = 5h

d = 1 cm

h = ?

1 = 5h

h = (1/5) = 0.20 hour

b) Centimetres of snow that accumulate per hour.

d = 5h

In 1 hour, h = 1 hour

d = ?

d = 5 × 1 = 5 cm

Hope this Helps!!!
