Given the statement:
Shawn has an Apple grove that is 75 feet x 50 feet. He then purchases a section of land 20 feet x 10 feet.
Determine the new total area of the farm.
Solution:
In order to determine the new total area of the farm, we must first add the new section of the land to the apple grove.
= 75 + 20
= 95 feet
= 50 + 10
= 60 feet
= 95 feet x 60 feet
Multiply the values to determine the total area.
= 95 feet x 60 feet
= 5700 ft^2
Final answer:
= 5700 ft^2
