500 and 50
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
i) Let the first (larger) number = x
And the second number = y
The difference between two numbers is 26.
x - y = 26 ....(1)
One number is three times the other
x = 3y ....(2)
Substituting x = 3y in equation (1), we get
3y - y = 26
2y = 26
y = 13
Substituting y = 13 in equation (2)
x = 3 × 13
x = 39
The two numbers are 39 and 13.
(ii) Let the larger angle = x
And the smaller angle = y
Since the angles are supplementary,
x + y = 180 ....(1)
Larger angle exceeds the smaller by 18
x = y + 18 ....(2)
Substituting x = y + 18 in equation (1), we get y + 18 + y = 180
2y = 180 - 18
y = 162/2
y = 81
Substituting y = 81 in equation (2), we get
x = 81 + 18
x = 99
The angles are 99 degrees and 81 degrees.
(iii) Let the cost of 1 bat = ₹ x
And the cost of 1 ball = ₹ y
7x + 6y = 3800 ....(1)
3x + 5y = 1750 ....(2)
By solving equation (1),
7x + 6y = 3800
6y = 3800 - 7x
y = (3800 - 7x) / 6 ....(3)
Substituting y = (3800 - 7x) / 6 in equation (2), we get
3x + 5 [(3800 - 7x) / 6] = 1750
(18x + 19000 - 35x) / 6 = 1750
-17x + 19000 = 1750 × 6
17x = 19000 - 10500
x = 8500/17
x = 500
Substituting x = 500 in equation (3), we get
y = (3800 - 7 × 500) / 6
y = 300/6
y = 50
Cost of 1 bat is ₹ 500
Cost of 1 ball is ₹ 50
