the cost of 5 pencils and 7pens together is 50 wheras cost of 7 pencils and 5 pens is 46 represent yhos algebrcally and geometrically
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5x+7y=50
x=50-7y/5(equation 1)
7x+5y=46
x=46-5y/7(equation 2)
sub. 1 in 2
50-7y/5=46-5y/7
y=5
x=46-5y/7
=3
Let cost of pencil be Rs. x
Cost of pens be Rs. y
5 pencils and 7 pens together cost Rs. 50,
So we get
5x+7y=50
Subtract 7y both side we get
5x=50–7y
Divide by 5 we get
x=10−57y
Plug value of y which is factor of 5 to get whole number so plug y=5,10,15 we get
fory=5
x=10−57y=10−7=3
for y=10
x=10−57y=10−14=−4
fory=15
x=10−57y=10−21=−11
Therefore, the required points are (3,5),(−4,10),(−11,15).
Given that 7 pencils and 5 pens together cost Rs. 46
7x+5y=46
Subtract 7x both side we get
5y=46–7x
Divide by 5 we get
y=9.2–1.4x
Plug x=0,2,4 we get
for x=0
y=9.2-0 =9.2
for x=2
y = 9.2-2.8 =6.4
Therefore, the required points are
(0,9.2) (2,6.4) (4,3.6)
The graph is as shown above:
Since the point of intersection is (3,5),
Hence, the cost of one pencil is Rs. 3 and the cost of one pen is Rs. 5
