Question

In the following week, when the store offers a discount of 10% on the same brand of the shirt and a
discount of 25% on the same brand of the trouser, Jacob buys 5 shirts and 2 trousers for ₹6300. Frame an
equation to model this situation.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given , Discount Percentage = 10 % Marked Price of jeans = Rs 1450 Marked Price of shirt = Rs 850 Now , Sale Price = Sale Price of a pair of jeans + Sale price for two shirts = Sale Price of a pair of jeans + 2 x Sale price for 1 shirts

Sale Price of a Pair of jeans Marked Price 1450 Discount Percentage = 10% Now, Discount Percentage Discount x 100 Marked Price Discount 10 = x 100 1450 10 x 1450 = Discount 100 145 = Discount . Discount = 145Also, Sale Price = Marked Price - Discount = 1450 – 145 = 1305

Sale Price of 1 Shirts Marked Price 850 Discount Percentage 10% Now, Discount Percentage Discount x 100 Marked Price Discount 10 = x 100 Marked Price 10 x 850 = Discount 100 85 = Discount Discount = 85

Also, Sale Price = Marked Price - Discount = 850 – 85 = 765

:: Sale Price of a Pair of Jeans = 1305 & Sale Price of 1 Shirt = 765 Putting values in equation (1) Sale Price = Sale price of a Pair of jeans + (2 x Sale Price of 1 shirt) %3D = 1305 + (2 x 765) = 1305 + 1530 = 2835 : The customer will have to pay Rs 2,835
