Using the circle graph above, if there are 96 acres of land, how many acres are used for corn?

Question 1 options:

38.4 acres

9.6 acres

28.8 acres

19.2 acres

28.8 acres

Step-by-step explanation:

total percentage = 100%

% used for corn = 100% - (40%+20%+10%)

= 100% - 70% = 30%

if total size of land is 96 acres,

then acres used for corn = 30% of 96acres

= 30/100 x 96

= 0.3 x 96 = 28.8 acres

answer: the proof is mentioned below.

step-by-step explanation:

since, given:   lines bc = ef

prove:   lines ac > ef

          statements                                           reason

1. bc=ef                                           1. given

2. ac= ab+bc                                 2. because b is the point between the  

                                                            line segment ac

3.   ac > bc                                       3. because if a line segment is equal to

                                                          the sum of two line segments then it is

                                                          always greater then each of these

                                                          individual line segments

4. ac > ef                                         4. by equality property.
