Two mixers and one TV cost ₹7,000, while two TVs and one mixer cost ₹9,800. The value of one TV is:

A₹3600

B₹4600

C₹3200

D₹4200

Answer:

D. ₹4200

Read Explanation:

Let:

  • Cost of one mixer = (M)

  • Cost of one TV = (T)

Given:

2M + T = 7000

M + 2T = 9800

From the first equation:

T = 7000 - 2M

Substitute into the second equation:

M+2(7000-2M)=9800

M + 14000 - 4M = 9800
-3M = -4200
M = 1400

Now,

T = 7000 - 2(1400)
T = 7000 - 2800 = 4200

Value of one TV = ₹4200
