v) Price of an apple is 3 times like the price of a mango. You will have a balance of Rs.
240/= when you give Rs. 500/= to buy 2 mangoes and 2 apples. Find the price of a
mango and an apple.

3) Solve the following simultaneous equations.

i) x + 2y = 10 ii) 4a – 3b = 7 iii) 8k – 3l =1
2x + 5y = 2 7a – 2b = 22 3k + 2l = 16

iv) 2p + 3q = 69 v) 2x + 3y = 28
5p = 4q 20 – 3y = x

4) Solve the following quadratic equations.

i) (x + 5) (x – 3) = 0
ii) 3x2 = 7x
iii) x2 + 9x + 20 = 0
