5 Pencils and 7 Pen together cost Rs.50, whereas 7 Pencils and 5 Pens together cost Rs.46.
Q1.(ii) 5 pencils and 7 pens together cost Rs.50, whereas 7 pencils and 5 pens together cost Rs.46. Find the cost of one pencil and that of one pen.
Solution:
Let be pencil cost = X Rs
Let be pen cost = Y Rs
5 Pencils and 7 Pens together cost = Rs.50
5X + 7 Y = 50 ----------------(1)
7 Pencils and 5 Pens together cost = Rs.46
7X + 5Y = 46 ----------------(2)
Let we take equation (1)
5X + 7 Y = 50
7Y = 50-5X
Y = 50-5X/7
Y = 50-5(-3)/7
= 50+15/7=35/7=5
Y = 50-5(-4)/7
= 50+20/7=70/7=10
Y = 50-5(10)/7
= 50-50/7=0/7=10
Table
X | 3 | -4 | 10 |
---|---|---|---|
Y=50-5X/7 | 5 | 10 | 0 |
(X,Y) | (3,5) | (-4,10) | (10,0) |
X | 3 | -2 | 8 |
---|---|---|---|
Y=46-7X/5 | 5 | 12 | -2 |
(X,Y) | (3,5) | (-2,12) | (8,-2) |
Graphically Solving (Plotting points on Graph page)
Intersect Point (X,Y) = (3,5)
Pencil Cost (X) = Rs.3
Pen Cost (Y) = Rs.5
