Afarmer plants corn and wheat on a 180-acre farm. the farmer wants to plant three times as many acres of corn as wheat. write a system of linear equations that represents this situation. use x to represent the number of aces of corn planted and y to represent the number of acres of wheat planted. how many acres of each crop should the farmer plant?

The corn should be in 135 acres and wheat in 45 acres.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that x represents the number of aces of corn planted and y to represent the number of acres of wheat planted.

x is the number of acres of corn.

y is the number of acres of wheat.

Total is 180 acres

x+y=180

He wants to plant 3 times as many corn as wheat

This can be written as:

x=3y

Substitute the value of the x in x+y=180

x+y=180

3y+y=180

4y=180

y=45

Thus, the wheat should be plant in 45 acre.

Now find the value of x by substituting the value of y in x=3y

x=3(45)

x=135

The corn should be plant in 135 acre.

Hence, the corn should be in 135 acres and wheat in 45 acres.
