    A man buys 3 cows and 8 goats in Rs. 47 200 Instead if he would have bought 8 cows and goats, he had to pay Rs. 53,000 more. Cost of one cow is:

    A)  Rs. 11,000         

    B)  Rs. 12,000  

    C)  Rs. 13,000         

    D)  Rs. 10,000

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     The C.P. of 1 cow = Rs.\[x\]and that of a goat = Rs. y. \[3x+8y=47200\]       ....(i) \[8x+3y=100200\]      ....(ii) By equation (i) x 3 - (ii) x 8, \[9x+24y-64x-24y=141600-801600\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,55x=660000\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,x=\frac{660000}{55}=Rs.\,12000\]
