all student of row be 180.
Step-by-step explanation:
here
there are x student of each row and there are y student row.
so, the number of students = xy........ (a)
According to the question
(x+3)(y-2) = xy
i.e xy - 2x + 3y - 6 = xy
2x - 3y + 6 = 0
x = (3y - 6 )\ 2 .............(1)
again,
(x-3) (y+ 3) = xy
xy +3x - 3y - 9 = xy
or, 3x - 3y - 9 =0 ........... (2)
equation (1) in (2) we get,
3(3y - 6) \2 - 3y - 9 =0
9y - 18 - 6y -18 = 0
3y = 36
y = 36\3 = 12
;. y = 12
the value of put in equation (2) we get.
3x - 3 x12 - 9 =0
3x = 36 + 9
or, x = 45\3
;, x =15
so, (x, y) = ( 15, 12)
now
the student of row = xy [ in equation (a) ]
then,
the student of all = 15x12 = 180
i.e all student of row be 180.
