Answer:
Amount of hay in first barn = 90 tons
Amount of hay in second barn song = 30 tons
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount of hay in second barn be x, then hay in first barn will be 3x.
20 tons of hay was removed from first barn and ws added to second barn.
Now, the amount of hay in first barn = 3x -20
Amount of hay in second barn = x+20
The equation now formed is:
x+20 =
(3x-20)
7x+14 = 15x -100
-8x = -240
8x = 240
x = 30
3x = 90
Amount of hay in first barn = 90 tons
Amount of hay in second barn song = 30 tons
(x + 2) = 3
-2 -2
0 1
x = 1
The increase of 45 to 75 is a positive increase. The decrease from 75 to 45 is a negitive
