प्रश्न
The taxi charges in a city comprised of a fixed charge of ₹ 100 for 5 kms and ₹ 16 per km for every additional km. If the amount paid at the end of the trip was ₹ 740 find the distance travelled.
उत्तर
Let the distance travelled by taxi be ‘x’ km
For the first 5 km the charge = ₹ 100
For additional kms the charge = ₹ 16(x – 5)
∴ For x kms the charge = 100 + 16(x – 5)
Amount paid = ₹ 740
∴ 100 + 16(x – 5) = 740
100 + 16(x – 5) – 100 = 740 – 100
16(x – 5) = 640
`(16(x - 5))/16 = 640/16`
x – 5 = 40
x – 5 + 5 = 45 + 5
x = 45
x = 45 km
∴ Total distance travelled = 45 km
