Answer» here is ur answer hope u have been understoodStep-by-step explanation:Let the fixed charge of taxi be Rs. x per KM and the running charge be ` y per km. According to the question, x + 10y = 75 x + 15y = 110 Subtracting equation (ii) from equation (i), we get – 5y = – 35 ⟹ y = 7 Putting y = 7 in equation (i), we get x = 5 ∴Total CHARGES for travelling a distance of 25 km = x + 25y = (5 + 25 × 7) = (5 + 175) = 180 |
