Answer: let the cost of pencil is x and the cost of pen is y
now, 5x + 7y = 50
⇒5x = 50 - 7y
⇒x = ..................................(i)
also,
7x + 5y = 46
⇒ 7x = 46 - 5y
⇒ 7 = 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
