Answer:
Either increase the number of acres that can be used for strawberry fields (by buying more land)..If we use the same numbers from earlier, then the farmer should use approximately 16.65 acres of land (or just 17 acres of land)
So if the farmer has 17 acres of land or more, then he will make more than $70,000 per year
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the proportions from earlier
We have the point (5, 21000)
70,000/21,000 = 3.3
To find the x-value multiply 3.3 by 5
3.3 * 5 = 16.65
We can even use the other point's values to find the exact same answer
Point (3.5, 14700)
70,000/14,700= 4.7619047619
4.7619047619 * 3.5 = 16.66 (literally about the same)
