ANSWER:
Given:
- Total of 200 trees
- No. of trees in each column is 10 more than in each row.
To Find:
- Number of trees in each row.
Solution:
Let the no. of trees in each row be x. -----(1)
So,
⇒ No. of trees in each column = x + 10 -----(2)
And,
⇒ Total trees = (no. of trees in each row) × (no. of trees in each column)
Placing values from (1) & (2)
⇒ 200 = (x) × (x + 10)
⇒ 200 = x² + 10x
Transposing RHS to LHS,
⇒ 0 = x² + 10x - 200
⇒ x² + 10x - 200 = 0
Splitting the middle term,
⇒ x² + 20x - 10x - 200 = 0
Taking out commons,
⇒ x(x + 20) - 10(x + 20) = 0
⇒ (x - 10)(x + 20) = 0
⇒ x = 10 or -20.
As no. of trees cant be negative, x≠-20.
So,
⇒ No. of trees in each row = 10
Answer:
THE NUMBER OF TREES IN EACH ROW BE 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of tree in each row be x.
Number of trees in each column be x+10
Total number of trees is 200.
x(x+10)=200
x²+10x=200
x²+10x-200=0
x²+20x-10x-200=0
x(x+20)-10(x+20)=0
(x-10)(x+20)=0
x-10=0 (OR). x+20=0
x=10 (OR). x=-20
But the trees cannot be negative so X=-20 is unacceptable and X=10 is acceptable
The number of trees in each row is 10
