A cottage industry produces a certain number of toys in a day. The cost of production of each toy (in rupees) was found to be 55 minus the number of articles produced in a day. On a particular day, the total cost of production was Rs.750. If x denotes the number of toys produced that day, form the quadratic equation to find x. |

Answer» Number of toys produced that day is ‘x’. Cost of production of each toy (in rupees) was found to be 55 minus the number of articles produced in a day. ∴ Cost of production of each toy = 55 – x Given, total cost of production = Rs. 750 ⇒ x × (55 – x) = 750 ⇒ - x2 + 55x – 750 = 0 ⇒ x2 – 55x + 750 = 0 |
