The diagram above represents a soybean field. One corner of the soybean field
was not irrigated properly (the bottom left corner in the diagram), so no soybeans
could be harvested from that part of the field. The dimensions on the figure are in
meters. How much money was lost by the farm if soybeans sold for $12 a bushel
that year and an acre of irrigated land yields 54 bushels of soybeans? Show your
work and explain your answer. (Note: 1 acre = 4,000 square meters.)
