Step-by-step explanation:
word problem:in a garden the number of trees in a row is greater than that in each column by 5 find the number of trees in each row if the total number of trees is 150
solution:
let the number of trees in each column be x
then the number of trees in each row is (X+5)
the total number of trees is 150
=x(x+5)=150
=x^2+5x-150=0
=x+15x-10x-150=0
=x(x+15)-10(x+15)=0
=(x+15)(x-10)=0
=x=-15 or x=10
But number of trains cannot be negative
x=-15 is unapplicable
x=10
x+5=10+5=15
the number of trees in each row is a 15
