Show your mathematical thinking and record your final solution. Part of the agreement between your spouse and yourself for purchasing a larger house than you could currently afford was that you would build a garden and sell produce to make some extra money. Your plan is that the garden proceeds will cover 20% of your $1,500 mortgage payment for four months during the year. The Homeowner association has recently reinforced that 'food-production' space must be in the backyard and may not consume more that 20% of the backyard. If your backyard is 60' x 130', how many dollars per garden square foot will you need to average per production month in order to meet your planned mortgage reduction?

It opens two choices for you: Choice (1): Farm for mango yourself and produce mango juice. You will invest 300,000BDT to set it up. But at every year end you will earn 600,000BDT (after deduction of all the taxes etc...) for the next 5 years. Choice (2): Lease out the garden to a company. It pays you 800,000BDT at the beginning of each year for the next 3 years. But after that due to hyper production over natural limits your trees will go barren for the next 2 years and production will become negligible. Which option should you choose? Assume that yearly inflation rate is 5%.arrow_forwardsolve practice problemarrow_forward
