Detailed Solution

It is given that 4 chairs and 5 tables are purchased by Ram for ₹ 3400. Later, for a total of ₹2500, he purchased 4 additional similar tables and chairs
Let’s assume the cost of a chair is x   and the cost of a table is y.   According to the question, we have,
4x+5y=3400 y= 34004x 5  
Therefore we can draw a table as,
Question ImageAlso, x+4y=2500.  
y= 2500x 4   Question ImageTherefore the graph can be obtained using the preceding table as follows:
Question ImageSince both the lines intersect each other at (100,600), therefore the solution is (100,600).
x=100,y=600   Thus, the cost of a chair is ₹100 and the cost of a table is ₹600.
Hence, option (1) is correct.
