Answer :
The correct expressions that give the new acreage are A and C.
A. 0.89y represents the remaining 89% of the original acreage after the sale.
C. y-0.11y represents the original acreage minus the 11% that was sold.
How to explain the expression
It should be noted that to find the new acreage using the first expression (A), we can simply multiply the original acreage by 0.89:
New acreage = 0.89y
To find the new acreage using the second expression (C), we can subtract 0.11 times the original acreage from the original acreage:
New acreage = y - 0.11y
New acreage = 0.89y
Both expressions give the same result, which is the new acreage after the sale.
