Answer»

let cost of one orange=x

cost of one apple=y

so, according to question,

5x+3y=30...............(1)

second equation:

2x+4y=26 2x=26-4y x=13-2yput the value of x in equation 1.so , >> 5(13-2y)+3y=30 >> 65-10y+3y=30 >> 7y=35 >> y=5

so, x=13-10=3

so, x=3 and y=5

cost of one orange= rs.3

cost of apple= rs.5
