Asparagus Cultivation The most successful asparagus cultivation has been in special micro-climates in the “rain shadow” of the Andes mountains, particularly in Peru. Consequently, the United States obtains most of its asparagus in the off-seasons from Peru. Asparagus cultivation in hectares for Peru and Mexico can be modeled by
Peru: y = 0.682x + 11.727
Mexico: y = 0.127x + 11.509
where x is the number of years after 1990.
a. Solve this system of equations for x.
b. If these models continue to be accurate, will Mexico’s cultivation equal Peru’s cultivation after 1990?
