Gopi sowed wheat and paddy in two fields with a total area of 4000 square meters.

Write a linear equation and draw a graph to represent the same.

Answer :

A linear equation which represent the total area of the two fields is w + p = 4000.

What is an equation?

An equation can be defined as a mathematical expression which shows that two (2) or more thing are equal.

In order to solve this word problem, we would assign a variable to the the area of both the wheat and paddy sowed by Gopi and then translate the word problem into algebraic linear equation as follows:

  • Let w represent the area of wheat.
  • Let p represent the area of paddy.

Translating the word problem into an algebraic linear equation, we have;

w + p = 4000

In conclusion, a graph which represent the total area of the two fields is shown in the image attached below.
