The cost of 2 kg of apples and 1 kg of grapes on a day was found to be ` 160. After a month, the cost of 4 kg of apples and 2 kg of grapes is ` 300. Represent the situation algebraically and geometrically.
Solution:
Let the cost of 1 kg of apple be ` x
and the cost of 1 kg of grapes be ` y
So, $2 x+y=160$
$4 x+2 y=300 x$
and
