    B)                        \[Rs.5200\]                                        

    C)                        \[Rs.\,5000\]                                     

    D)                         \[Rs.\,4800\]    

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Let the cost of the scooter be Rs. 9x and the cost of the cycle be Rs. 5x. We have, \[9x-5x=4200\,x=1050\] Cost of the cycle \[=5\times 1050=Rs.\,5250\]
