Answer:
(y + 5) + (y - 2) + y = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
total number of rows = 25 = Rows of cucumber + rows of pepper + rows of tomatoes
note: y represent rows of tomatoes
Rows of Cucumber = 5+y
Rows of pepper = y-2
Now according to statment, total number of rows of all three types of vegetables are 25. so, we can write it as
25 = Rows of cucumber + rows of pepper + rows of tomatoes
by putting the values in above statement, we get:
(y + 5) + (y - 2) + y = 25
