-2x + 6y = 6
6y - 6 = 2x
6(y-1) = 2x
(1/2) * 6(y-1) = 2x * (1/2)
x = 3(y-1)
------------
If, x = 3(y-1),
-7 * 3(y-1) + 8y = -5
-21 * (y-1) + 8y = -5
-21y + 21 + 8y = -5
21 + 5 = 21y - 8y
26 = 13y
y = 26/13
Therefore: y=2.
----------
If y=2,
x = 3(2-1) = 3
-----------
Answers:
x=3 and y=2.
Answer:
<em>Number of story books bought = 100
</em>
<em>
C.P. of each book = Rs. 135
</em>
<em>
C.P. of all 100 books = Rs. (135×100)= Rs. 13500
</em>
<em>
C.P. of 90 books = Rs. (135×90)= Rs. 12150
</em>
<em>
Number of books donated = 10
</em>
<em>
Number of books sold = 100-10=90
</em>
<em>
Loss% in the transaction = 2%
</em>
<em>
S.P. of all books = (C.P./100)(100-loss%)
</em>
<em> =Rs. (12150/100×98)
</em>
<em>
Thus, S.P. of each book
</em>
<em>
= Rs. {(12150/100×98)÷90}
</em>
<em>
= Rs. (12150/100×98/90)
</em>
<em>
= Rs. 132.3</em>
