Part a· 4 steps
Calculate the total area of the land allocated for cabbage.
Calculate the total area of the land.
The land measures 120 meters by 80 meters.
Calculate the area used for maize and beans.
Area for maize = of total area
Area for beans = 25% of total area
Calculate the remaining land.
Allocate the remaining land to cabbage.
The remaining land is shared by tomatoes and cabbage in the ratio 2:3. The total ratio parts are .
The fraction of land for cabbage is .The total area of the land allocated for cabbage is .
Part b
Determine the actual yield of maize in kg after the percentage changes.
Calculate the estimated maize yield.
From part a), the area for maize is .
Each square meter of maize land produces 5 kg of maize.Apply the percentage decrease to find the actual yield.
The maize yield decreased by 15%.
The actual yield of maize is .
Part c
Determine the final altitude of the farm land relative to sea level after the flood.
Identify the initial altitude of the farm land.
The farm is located 30 meters above sea level.
Account for the rise in water levels.
The water levels rose by 12 meters. This means the new effective sea level is 12 meters higher than the original sea level.
To find the farm land's altitude relative to the new sea level, subtract the water level rise from the initial altitude.The final altitude of the farm land relative to sea level after the flood is .
