Respuesta :

We have been given that a farmer has 160 bushels of apples to sell at her roadside stand. She sells an average [tex]13\frac{7}{10}[/tex] bushels each day.

Let us find total change in the number of bushels she has for sale after 7 days.

[tex]13\frac{7}{10}=\frac{137}{10}[/tex]    

Now we will find number of bushels she will sale in 7 days as,

[tex]7\cdot\frac{137}{10}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{959}{10}=95.9[/tex]

The farmer will sell 95.9 bushels in 7 days. Now we will subtract this number from total number of bushels of apples to get our total change.

[tex]160-95.9=64.1[/tex]

Therefore, the total change in the numbers of bushels she has for sale is 64.1 bushels.  

Answer: it’s -95 9/10
