    40.05 acres

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x = number of acres per farm x years after 2000.

    In the year 2005, x = 2005 - 2000 = 5.

    To estimate the average number of acres per farm in 2005, we have to replace the value x = 5 in the expression of A (x).

    A (5) = (2078. 5 - 94458) / (13. 5 - 2164)

    A (5) = (10390 - 94458) / (65 - 2164)

    A (5) = (-84068) / (-2099)

    A (5) = 40.05

    Answer: 170.37 acres

    Step-by-step explanation:

    In 2005, x = 2005

    Substituting x=2005 in the equation.

    A (2005) = (2078x-94458) / (13x-2164)

    A (2005) = 4071932/23901

    A (2005) = 170.37 acres
