Answer:

x = -3.25

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5 = 0.4

0.4x - 0.2 = -2(3/4)

-2(3/4) = -2/1 * 3/4 = -6/4

0.4x - 0.2 = -6/4

Convert to fraction

2/5x - 1/5 = -6/4

Add 1/5 to both sides

-6/4 + 1/5 = -30/20 + 4/20 = -26/20

2/5x = -26/20

Convert to decimal

0.4x = -1.3

-1.3/0.4 = -3.25

x = -3.25

Rzqust [24]

Answer:

37.5 acres.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction of his land  where vegetables are grown

= 1 - 1/3 - 2/3 *3/5

(after taking away 1/3 we get 2/3 and the farmer uses 3/5 of this 2/3 to grow Maize.

= 1 - 1/3 - 6/15              LCD of 3 and 15= 15  so we write:

= 1 - 5/15 - 6/15

= 1 - (5+6)/16

=  1 - 11/15

= 4/15.

4 /15 is equivalent to  10 acres

so  total  area (= 1)  =   10 / 4/15     Invert the 4/15 and multiply:

= 10 * 15/4

=  150/4

= 37.5 acres.
