A transport company in Chennai charges a fixed booking fee and a per-km rate. Equations: x + 10y = ₹500, x + 15y = ₹700. Find the fixed fee (x).
- A. ₹50
- B. ₹100
- C. ₹200
- D. ₹250
Answer: B) ₹100
Explanation: Using matrix method or elimination: D = 15 - 10 = 5. Dx = (500)(15) - (700)(10) = 7500 - 7000 = 500. x = 500 / 5 = ₹100.
