3. The cost of 2 kg of apples and 1kg of grapes on a day was found to be * 160. After a
month, the cost of 4 kg of apples and 2 kg of grapes is 300. Represent the situation
algebraically and geometrically.
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let cost each kg of apples = Rs x
Cost of each kg of grapes = Rs y
Given that The cost of 2 kg of apples and 1kg of grapes on a day was found to be Rs 160
So that
2 x + y = 160 … (1)
2x = 160 - y
x = (160 – y)/2
Let y = 0 , 80 and 160 we get
X = (160 – ( 0 ))/2 = 80
X = (160- 80 )/2 = 40
X = (160 – 2* 80 )/2 = 0
X
80
40
0
y
0
80
160
Given that the cost of 4 kg of apples and 2 kg of grapes is Rs 300
so we get
4 x + 2 y = 300 … (2)
Divide by 2 we get
2 x + y = 150
Subtract 2x both side we get
Y = 150 – 2 x
Plug x = 0 , 50 , 100 we get
Y = 150 – 2*0 = 150
Y = 150 – 2* 50 = 50
Y = 150 – 2 * (100 ) = - 50
X
0
50
100
Y
150
50
-50
Algebraic representation
2 x + y = 160 … (1)
4 x + 2 y = 300 … (2)
let us consider that price of apple be x & grapes be y
divide equation 2 on both side by 2
2x+y=150 ..............................eq 3
we got two equations 1&3
2x+y=160 &2x+y=150
then put simanteniously x and y values
2x+y=160 2x+y=150
x=50 x=50
100+y=160 100+y=150
