Answer 1

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of fruit trees be 'x'

& non-fruit trees be 'y'

According to question,

y = 3x+2  ...i)

&

total trees = 102

=> x + y = 102

=> x + 3x + 2 =102  using i)

=> 4x = 102 - 2= 100

=> x = 100/4

=> x = 25 , no. of fruit trees.

Let the no. of fruit trees be 'x'

Let non-fruit trees be 'y'

y = 3x+2

x + y = 102

x + 3x + 2 =102  

4x = 102 - 2= 100

x = 100/4

x = 25
