- 30L+3Q=11.67
30L+6Q=12.48
------------
3Q=.81 Q= .27
from that L=0.362 cost of 10 kg apple is 10*.362=3.6 - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(81) No(1)
- Ans. 3.62
As 36 KG = Rs 12.48
-33 KG = Rs 11.67
----------------
3 KG = Rs o.81
----------------
So
33 KG = 11.67
-03 KG = 00.81
--------------
30 KG = 10.86
--------------
So 10 KG = 10.86/3 = 3.62

- 30KG=RS L
33KG=RS 11.67
1KG=11.67/33=RS 0.353
10KG=0.353*10=RS 3.5 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(2) No(2)
- 30L+3Q=11.67
30L+6Q=12.48
Eliminate Q by multiplying the first equation by 2 and subtracting second equation from the first
Then we get L = 0.362
Cost of 10 kgs of apples = 0.362 x 10 = 3.62

- 33=(30+3)
so the cost of 33kgs apples according to question is 30L+3Q=11.67 ---->eq(1)
36=(30+6)
so the cost of 36kg apples is 30L+6Q ---->eq(2)
by solving eq(1) and eq(2)
we get L=0.36 and Q=0.27
Lis cost of 1kg of apples then cost of 10kg =0.36*10=>3.6=>3.50(approx.) - 5 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- 30L+3Q=11.67
30L+6Q=12.48
subtracting one from other
3Q=0.81
Q=0.81/3
Q=0.27
10*Q=2.7 - 6 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(1)
