Answer:
The mother bought 10 kg of mangoes and 10 kg of atis.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Price of mango = Rs. 60 per kg
Price of atis = Rs. 40 per kg
Combined quantity = 20 kg.
Let x be the number of mangoes.
Atis = 20 - x
ATQ:
60 x + 40(20 - x) = 1000
60 x + 800 - 40 x = 1000
20 x = 200
x = 200 / 20
x = 10.
So, mother bought 10 kg of mangoes and 10 kg of atis.
Now, also let the number of atis be y.
So, the equation will become:
x + y = 20.
b) Equation for the cost of fruits will be:
60 x + 40 y = 1000
c) The system of equations are:
x + y = 20 and 60 x + 40 y = 1000
d) We know that:
y = 20 - x
Put it another equation:
60 x + 40 (20 - x) = 1000
60x + 800 - 40 x = 1000
20 x = 200
x = 10 kg
y = 20 - x
y = 20 - 10
y = 10 kg
e) Check:
60 (10) + 40 ( 10) = 1000
600 + 400 = 1000
1000 = 1000
since LHS = RHS, it is correct.
Therefore, we get that the mother bought 10 kg of mangoes and 10 kg of atis.
