1 answer

Since the farmer sells an average of 14 and one-fourth (or 14.25) bushels each day, the change in the total number of bushels the farmer has for sale after 7 days is -14.25 * 7 = -99.75 bushels.

Therefore, the signed number representing the change in the total number of bushels the farmer has for sale is -99.75.
