⇒ (x – 7) (0 – 6) = (x + 3) 2 + (0 – 4) 2
2+ 2 Explanation:
Squaring both sides, we have We have, y = 2 × 5 = 10
⇒ (x – 7)2 + 36 = (x + 3)2 + 16 x = 7 × y = 7 × 10 = 70
⇒ x2 – 14x + 49 + 36 = x2 + 6x + 9 + 16 z = 2 × x = 2 × 70 = 140
⇒ –20x = –60 ⇒ x = 3 So, x : y : z = 10 : 70 : 140 = 1 : 7 : 14
\ Required point is (3, 0).

Explanation: Algebraic representation of the
49. (b) ` 3
situation of amount paid by Reshma is given
by Explanation: We have,
x + 2y = 16 x + 4y = 22 and x = 10
\ 4y = 22 – 10 = 12 Þ y = 3
47. (c) x + 4y = 22 \ Charges for each extra day is ` 3.
Explanation: Algebraic representation of the
situation of amount paid by Radhika is given 50. (c) ` 50

by x + 4y = 22. Explanation: Amount paid by Radhika

= x + 4y + 2y = x + 6y
48. (c) ` 10
= 10 + 6 × 3 = ` 28
Explanation: We have,
Amount paid by Reshma
x + 4y = 22 ...(i)
= x + 2y + 2y
and x + 2y = 16 ...(ii)
= x + 4y
Multiplying (ii) by 2 and then subtracting it
from (i), we get = 10 + 4 × 3
x + 4y – 2x – 4y = 22 – 32 = ` 22
Þ – x = – 10 Þ x = 10 \ Total amount paid by both
= ` (28 + 22) = ` 50
