Suppose the world market price is $1.42 per kg for Arabica and $0.83 per kg for Robusta. If a plantation has a hectares of Arabica and r hectares of Robusta, write an equation relating a and r if the plantation produces coffee worth $35000.

In this problem we need to find an equation
Each term of the equation represents the revenue contributed by the respective variety of coffee.
1.42*800*a + 0.83*1300*r = 35,000
Simplifying, we get
1136a + 1079r = 35,000 answer
