Question

in a orange garden of Mr. madhusudan there are 150 trees .the no of tree in each row is 5 more than that in each column. find the number of trees in each row and each column

Answer 1

Answer:

Let x be the number of tress in each row and y be the number of tress in each column.

In a orange garden of Mr. Madhusudan there are 150 trees

⇒ $x+y=150$                 .....[1]

It is also given the no of tree in each row is 5 more than that in each column.

⇒$x = 5+y$                    .....[2]

Substitute equation [2] into [1] we get

$5+y+y =150$

Combine like terms;'

$5+2y =150$

Subtract 5 from both sides we get;

$2y =145$

Divide both sides by 2 we get;

$y =72.5$

Substitute in [2] we get;

$x = 5+72.5=77.5$

Therefore, number of trees in each row is 77.5 and number of trees in each column is 72.5
