Banana trees yield 32 pounds of fruit per acre and strawberry plants yield 84 pounds of fruit per acre. Suppose Erica's farm has b acres of banana trees, s acres of strawberry plants, and yields 1,200 pounds of fruit. What is the equation that represents this scenario?


84b + 32s = 1,200

32b + 84s = 1,200

116f = 1,200

b + s = 1,200

Answer:  The correct option is (B) [tex]32b+84s=1200.[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that banana trees yield 32 pounds of fruit per acre and strawberry plants yield 84 pounds of fruit per acre.

Suppose Erica's farm has b acres of banana trees, s acres of strawberry plants and yields 1,200 pounds of fruit.

We are to select the equation that represents the given scenario.

The total pounds of fruits yield by banana trees is

[tex]32 \times b=32b[/tex]

and

the total pounds of fruits yield by strawberry plants is

[tex]84\times s=84s.[/tex]

Since Erica's farm yield a total of 1200 pounds of fruits, so the required equation that represents the scenario is given by

[tex]32b+84s=1200.[/tex]

Thus, the required equation is [tex]32b+84s=1200.[/tex]

Option (B) is the correct option.
