Answer:

1210 acres

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

let the old farmland be x acres

new farmland = 968 acres

therefore

let us find 20% of the old farmland

=20/100x

=0.2x

Hence

968+0.2x=x

collect like terms

968=x-0.2x

968=0.8x

x= 968/0.8

x=1210 acres

Answer:

6^2+8^2=c^2

36+64=c^2

100=c^2

10=c
