Answer 1

`(12000)/(x)\text{ (option 4)}`Step-by-step explanation:

Amount needed for the bushels of soybeans = $12000

number of bushels of soybeans = x

Average price is the sum of all the cost divided by the number of units

`\begin{gathered} \text{Average price = }\frac{\text{Total cost of production}}{nu\text{mber of bushels}} \\ \\ \text{Average price = }(12000)/(x) \end{gathered}`

Hence, the average price (in dollars) per bushel of the crop is 12000/x
