Problema Solution
Taha and tahla figure that the combined value of their coin collection is Rs189 . what is the value of each boy collection if tahla is valued at Rs 43 more than taha
Answer provided by our tutors
let
x = the value of Taha's coin collection
y = the value of Tahla's coin collection
Taha and Tahla figure that the combined value of their coin collection is Rs189
x + y = 189
Tahla is valued at Rs 43 more than Taha
y = 43 + x
by solving the system of equations
x + y = 189
y = 43 + x
we find
x = Rs73
y = Rs116
The values for Taha's and Tahla's collections are Rs73 and Rs116 correspondently.
