Question: 1 / 400

How much will it cost to purchase Bravo WeatherStik for a 65-acre peanut field if the fungicide costs $5.75 per pint and is applied at a rate of 2 pints per acre?

$747.50

To determine the total cost of purchasing Bravo WeatherStik for a 65-acre peanut field, you need to follow these steps:

1. **Calculate the total amount of fungicide needed**: Since the application rate is 2 pints per acre, you multiply the rate by the total number of acres. For 65 acres, the calculation is:

\[

2 \text{ pints/acre} \times 65 \text{ acres} = 130 \text{ pints}

\]

2. **Calculate the total cost**: With the cost of fungicide at $5.75 per pint, you multiply the total pints needed by the cost per pint to find the total cost:

\[

130 \text{ pints} \times 5.75 \text{ dollars/pint} = 747.50 \text{ dollars}

\]

This calculation shows that the total expense for purchasing Bravo WeatherStik for the specified area comes to $747.50, making this answer correct. The figures align with proper agricultural practices to ensure enough fungicide is applied for effective crop management.
