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
