Answer:

1. No

2. 1,050 bushels of corn

Step-by-step explanation:

1. A number is proportional if it has a constant ratio to another quantity.

8/12 and 10/25 do not.

2. An acre will produce [tex]\frac{750}{10}[/tex] bushels of corn.

750 divided by 10 is 75. This is 75 bushels per acre.

Then you would multiply 75 and 14.

This equals 1,050 bushels of corn.
