Let the number of raspberry bushes in one garden = x

And the number of raspberry bushes in second garden = y

Garden one has 5 times as many raspberry bushes as second garden,

So the equation will be,

x = 5y -------(1)

If 22 bushes were transplanted from garden one to the second, number of bushes in both the garden becomes same,

Therefore, (x - 22) = (y + 22)

x - y = 22 + 22

x - y = 44 ------(2)

Substitute the value of x from equation (1) to equation (2)

5y - y = 44

4y = 44

y = 11

Substitute the value of 'y' in equation (1),

x = 5(11)

x = 55

Therefore, Number of bushes in garden one were 55 and in second garden 11 originally.

Answer:

x=28

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use similar triangles and proportions to solve this problem.  Put the side of the small triangle over the same side of the larger triangle.

x               42

---------- = ----------

x+10           42+15

Simplify

x               42

---------- = ----------

x+10           57

Using cross products

57x = 42 (x+10)

Distribute

57x = 42x+420

Subtract 42x from each side

57x-42x = 42x-42x +420

15x = 420

Divide each side by 15

15x/15 = 420/15

x=28
