Algebra.Com's Answer #276032 by robertb(5830)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! A = kP is the working equation, with k = constant of proportionality. It is equal to k = 25000/17750 = 100/71. Then A = 100*2450500/71 = 3451408.45 tons, to 2 decimal places.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Manigong Bagong Taon!
