Let the price of 1 apple, 1 banana and 1 orange is a, b and c respectively.

3a + 5b + 3c = 85     equation 1

4a + 4b + 5c = 87     equation 2

5a + 3b + 7c =?

Multiply equation 1 and 2 by m and n respectively and adding will given the required equation

3m+5n = 7     equation 3

5m+4n = 3     equation 4

3m+4n = 5     equation 5

Equation 4 – equation 5

2m= –2

m= –1 and n = 2

Substituting these values in equation 3 which also satisfy

Equation 1 * (–1) + equation 2 *2

= 5a + 3b + 7c

= 85 (–1) + 87 (2)

5a + 3b + 7c = 89Rs.

Price of 5 apple,

Let the distance between Delhi (D) and Jaipur (J) be 8x and Akbar's initial speed be 4a and final speed be 7a.

Let the point where he increased his speed at P and let Q be the point on DJ such that DP=58 (DJ)

PQPJ=47

Let PQ = 4y,

PJ = 7y

QJ = 7y – 4y = 3x

3y = 3x

y= x

PQ = 4x and PJ =7x

Required ratio = DPDJ

x8x = 1/8

f (a) = a2 – 2ax + y

f (x) = x2 – 2x2 + y = 0

– x2 + y =0

y = x2                           ………. (1)

f (y) = y2 – 2xy + y = 0

y2 – 2xy + x2 = 0

  (y – x)2 = 0

y – x = 0

y = x

Put value of y in equation 1

We get

x = y = 1

So, f (4) = 42 – 2 (4*1) + 1

= 16 – 8 +1

= 9

Let the airline has a free luggage allowance 'f' kg

Luggage by M m kg

Luggage by S s kg 

Rate charger beyond f kg 'e'/kg

Extra luggage of m = (m – f) kg

Extra luggage of s = (s – f) kg

ATQ

e (2m – f) = 2400 ______equation 1

e (2s – f) = 900 ______equation 2

add 1 and 2

e (m + s –f ) = 1650

Also, e (m – f) + e (s – f) = 1050

e (m + s –f ) – ef = 1050

1650 – ef= 1050

ef = 600

Extra luggage from m = e (m – f)

e (2m2f)2=e (2mf)ef2

=24006002

= Rs. 900

Given equation is

x2 – 25 <5

–5 < x2 – 25 < 5

20 < x2 < 30

20 < x < 30

Hence x = 5

x = 5

Sum of square of even natural number n = 22 + 42 + 62 + ……………. +n2

= 22 [12 + 22+ 32+ ……………+ (n/2)2]

4 . ( n / 2 ) ( n 2 + 1 ) ( 2 n 2 + 1 ) 6 = 5 1 * n

(n+1) (n+2) = 51*6

n2 + 3n +2 = 306

(n–16) (n+19) = 0

n=16

So, d= 150t1

t1d150

d = (80+120) t2

t2d200

Total time = t1 + 2t2

d150+2d200

d150 + d100

2d+3d300

=5d300=d60

Average speed = 2dd60 = 120km/hr.

Average distance covered in one hour is same as average speed.
