Respuesta :

Answer:

total cost of farming = $380

so correct option is d. $380

Explanation:

given data

cost of seeds = $130

Farmer Ziva charges = $25

time = 10 hours

solution

so total cost of farming is calculated as

total cost of farming = cost of seeds + opportunity cost

so put value

total cost of farming = $130 + ( $25 × 10 )

total cost of farming = 130 + ( 250 )

total cost of farming = $380

so correct option is d. $380
