Answer: let the cost of  pencil is x and the cost of pen is y

now, 5x + 7y = 50

⇒5x = 50 - 7y

⇒x = \frac{50 - 7y}{5} ..................................(i)

also,

7x + 5y = 46

⇒ 7x = 46 - 5y

⇒ 7 *\frac{50 - 7y}{5} = 46 - 5y ........................................from equation (i)

⇒ 350 - 49y = 230 - 25y

⇒ 350 - 230 = 49y - 25y

⇒ 120 = 24y

⇒ 120/24 = y

⇒  y = 5

∴ x = 50 - 7y / 5

⇒ x = 50 - 35 / 5

⇒ x = 15  /5

⇒ x = 3

∴ cost of pencil = Rs.3

and cost of pen = Rs.5
