Step-by-step explanation:

Given that: A lending library has a fixed charge for one week and charges fine for keeping the book for each day thereafter Manan had issued a book and paid rupees 25 as he delayed it by 1 day due to rain on that day. diptanshu had issued a book but paid rupees 85 for a book as he had forgotten to return it and delayed by 5 days and returned it after getting a reminder from the concerned person.

To find: find the fixed charge and the total amount of fine money paid by them?

Solution:

Let us assume that fixed charge for one week is x rupees

Fine amount for 1 day delay is y rupees

ATQ,

Manan deposite 1 day late,

 \bold{x + y = 25} \:  \:  \:  \: ...eq1 \\

Diptanshu had returned 5 day late and paid rupees 85 for a book

 \bold{x + 5y = 85}  \:  \:  \:  \: ...eq2\\  \\

Now subtract both equations

x + y = 25 \\ x + 5y = 85 \\ ( - ) ( - ) \:  \:  \: ( - ) \\  -  -  -  -  -  \\  - 4y =  - 60 \\  \\ y =  \frac{60}{4}  \\  \\  \bold{y = 15} \\  \\

put the value of y in eq 1

x + 15 = 25 \\  \\ x = 25 - 15 \\  \\  \bold{x = 10} \\  \\

Fixed charge for 1 week is Rs 10

Fine amount for per day delay is Rs 15

Hope it helps you.
