You can put this solution on YOUR website! x the acres of pumpkins
(x+250) + x = 420
2x = 170
x = 85acres, the acres of pumpkins. Acres of corn = 335acres
and...checking
Sum = 420
You can put this solution on YOUR website! x = acres of pumpkin
y = acres of corn
---
y = x + 250
x + y = 420
---
put the system of linear equations into standard form
---
x - y = -250
x + y = 420
---
