two bags had 100 kilograms of sugar each. After taking out 3 times as much sugar from bag one than bag two , bag one had half as much sugar was bag two.How much sugar is left in each bag?

Question

i got 9 kilogram in bag on 1 and 0 grams in bag 2

Answer 1

take x from bag 2
take 3x from bag 1

amount now in bag 2 = 100 - x
amount now in bag 1 = 100 - 3x

100 - 3 x = (1/2)(100 - x)

200 - 6 x = 100 - x

5 x = 100

x = 20

so
bag 1 = 100 - 3(20) = 40
bag 2 = 100 - 20 = 80

Answer 2

Yes, it is possible, but what did you do?

Answer 3

Bag 1 =40
Bag 3 =80

Answer 4

-3x+2*(-x)
x=0

Answer 5

can you check this one:
green one has 9 more bushes of red currant than garden two. if 3 bushes from garden 2 were placed in garden 1 then garden 1 will have 1.5 times more bushes than garden two. how many bushes were in garden one

i got no solutions
x-9+3=x-3
0=3

Answer 6

x: garden 1 bushes
y: garden 2 bushes

x = y+9
(x+3) = (3/2)(y-3)

y+9+3 = (3/2)(y-3)
2y+24 = 3y-9
y = 33
so, x = 42

check:
42+3 = (3/2)(33-3)
45 = 3/2 * 30 yep

Answer 7

X:The amount of bushes in garden 2
garden 1: x+9
garden 2: x
Garden 1 has three less bushes now, and garden 2 has three more.
garden 1: x+9-3=X+6
garden 2: x+3

Garden 1 has 1.5 times more bushes than garden 2.
x+6=1.5(x+3)
x+6=1.5x+4.5
x+1.5=1.5x
1.5=0.5x
x=3

Garden 1: 9 bushes
