Question 2.
The mean salary of 20 workers is ₹10,250. If the salary of office superintendent is added, the mean will increase by ₹ 750. Find the salary of the office superintendent.
Solution:
\( \text { Mean }=\frac{\text { The sum of all observations }}{\text { Total number of observations }}\)
∴ The sum of all observations = Mean x Total number of observations
The mean salary of 20 workers is ₹ 10,250.
∴ Sum of the salaries of 20 workers
= 20 x 10,250
= ₹ 2,05,000 …(i)
If the superintendent’s salary is added, then mean increases by 750
new mean = 10, 250 + 750 = 11,000
Total number of people after adding superintendent = 20 + 1 = 21
∴ Sum of the salaries including the superintendent’s salary = 21 x 11,000 = ₹ 2,31,000 …(ii)
∴ Superintendent salary = sum of the salaries including superintendent’s salary – sum of salaries of 20 workers
= 2, 31,00 – 2,05,000 …[From (i) and (ii)]
= 26,000
∴ The salary of the office superintendent is ₹ 26,000.

Question 3.
The mean of nine numbers is 77. If one more number is added to it, then the mean increases by 5. Find the number added in the data.
Solution:
∴ \( \text { Mean }=\frac{\text { The sum of all observations }}{\text { Total number of observations }}\)
∴ The sum of all observations = Mean x Total number of observations mean of nine numbers is 77
∴ sum of 9 numbers = 11 x 9 = 693 …(i)
If one more number is added, then mean increases by 5
mean of 10 numbers = 77 + 5 = 82
∴ sum of the 10 numbers = 82 x 10 = 820 …(ii)
∴ Number added = sum of the 10 numbers – sum of the 9 numbers = 820 – 693 … [From (i) and (ii)]
= 127
∴ The number added in the data is 127.

Question 4.
The monthly maximum temperature of a city is given in degree Celsius in the following data. By taking suitable classes, prepare the grouped frequency distribution table
29.2, 29.0, 28.1, 28.5, 32.9, 29.2, 34.2, 36.8, 32.0, 31.0, 30.5, 30.0, 33, 32.5, 35.5, 34.0, 32.9, 31.5, 30.3, 31.4, 30.3, 34.7, 35.0, 32.5, 33.5.29.0. 29.5.29.9.33.2.30.2

The calculated mean of 50 observations was 80. It was later discovered that observation 19 was recorded by mistake as 91. What Was the correct mean?
Solution:
Here, mean = 80, number of observations = 50
\( \text { Mean }=\frac{\text { The sum of all observations }}{\text { Total number of observations }}\)
∴ The sum of all observations = Mean x Total number of observations
∴ The sum of 50 observations = 80 x 50
= 4000
One of the observation was 19. However, by mistake it was recorded as 91.
Sum of observations after correction = sum of 50 observation + correct observation – incorrect observation
= 4000 + 19 – 91

Solution:
Given data in ascending order :
2, 3, 5, 9, x + 1, x + 3, 14, 16, 19, 20.
∴ Number if observations (n) = 10 (i.e., even)
∴ Median is the average of middle two observations
Here, the 5th and 6th numbers are in the middle position.
∴ \( \text { Median }=\frac{(x+1)+(x+3)}{2}\)
∴ 11 = \(\frac { 2x+4 }{ 2 }\)
∴ 22 = 2x + 4
∴ 22 – 4 = 2x
∴ 18 = 2x
∴ x = 9

Question 9.
The mean of 35 observations is 20, out of which mean of first 18 observations is 15 and mean of last 18 observations is 25. Find the 18th observation.
Solution:
\( \text { Mean }=\frac{\text { The sum of all observations }}{\text { Total number of observations }}\)
∴ The sum of all observations
= Mean x Total number of observations
The mean of 35 observations is 20
∴ Sum of 35 observations = 20 x 35 = 700 ,..(i)
The mean of first 18 observations is 15
Sum of first 18 observations =15 x 18
= 270 …(ii)
The mean of last 18 observations is 25 Sum of last 18 observations = 25 x 18
= 450 …(iii)
∴ 18th observation = (Sum of first 18 observations + Sum of last 18 observations) – (Sum of 35 observations)
= (270 + 450) – (700) … [From (i), (ii) and (iii)]
= 720 – 700 = 20
The 18th observation is 20.

Question 10.
The mean of 5 observations is 50. One of the observations was removed from the data, hence the mean became 45. Find the observation which was removed.
Solution:
\( \text { Mean }=\frac{\text { The sum of all observations }}{\text { Total number of observations }}\)
∴ The sum of all observations = Mean x Total number of observations
The mean of 5 observations is 50
Sum of 5 observations = 50 x 5 = 250 …(i)
One observation was removed and mean of remaining data is 45.
Total number of observations after removing one observation = 5 – 1 = 4
Now, mean of 4 observations is 45.
∴ Sum of 4 observations = 45 x 4 = 180 …(ii)
∴ Observation which was removed
= Sum of 5 observations – Sum of 4 observations = 250 – 180 … [From (i) and (ii)]
= 70
∴ The observation which was removed is 70.

Question 11.
There are 40 students in a class, out of them 15 are boys. The mean of marks obtained by boys is 33 and that for girls is 35. Find out the mean of all students in the class.
Solution:
Total number of students = 40
Number of boys =15
∴ Number of girls = 40 – 15 = 25
The mean of marks obtained by 15 boys is 33
Here, sum of the marks obtained by boys

x + y = 20
x – y = 6
2x = 26
∴ x = 13
Substituting x = 13 in equation (i),
13 + y = 20
∴ y = 20 – 13
∴ y = 7

Solution:
i. Let the Lower class limit and upper class limit of the class mark 5 be x and y respectively.
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 7 Statistics Practice Set 7.3 9
∴x + y = 10
Here, class width = 15 – 5 = 10
But, Class width = Upper class limit – Lower class limit
∴ y – x = 10
∴ -x + y = 10 …(ii)
Adding equations (i) and (ii),
x+ y = 10
-x + y = 10
∴ 2y = 20
∴ y = 10
Substituting y = 10 in equation (i),
∴ x + 10 = 10
∴ x = 0
∴ class with class-mark 5 is 0 – 10
Similarly, we can find the remaining classes.
∴ frequency table taking inclusive and exclusive classes.

ii. Let the lower class limit and upper class limit of the class mark 22 be x andy respectively.
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 7 Statistics Practice Set 7.3 11
∴ x + y = 44 …(i)
Here, class width = 24 – 22 = 2
But, Class width = Upper class limit – Lower class limit
∴ y – x = 2
∴ -x + y = 2 …. (ii)
Adding equations (i) and (ii),
x + y = 44
– x + y= 2
2y = 46
∴ y = 23
Substituting y = 23 in equation (i),
∴ x + 23 = 44
∴ x = 21

(B) x + y = 8
(C) x + y = 23
(D) 2x + y = 21
Answer:
(C) x + y = 23

iii. Ajay is younger than Vijay by 5 years. Sum of their ages is 25 years. What is Ajay’s age?
(A) 20 years
(B) 15 years
(C) 10 years
(D) 5 years
Answer:
(C) 10 years

Hints:
i. Adding the given equations,
3x+ 5y = 9
5x + 3y = 7
8x + 8y = 16
∴ x + y = 2 .. [Dividing both sides by 8]

ii. Let the length of the rectangle be ‘x’ and that of breadth be ‘y’.
Perimeter of rectangle = 2[(x – 5) + (y – 5)]
∴ 26 = 2(x + y – 10)
∴ x + y – 10 = 13
∴ x + y = 23

iii. Let the age of Ajay bex years.
∴ x + (x + 5) = 25
∴ 2x = 20
∴ x = 10 years

Question 2.
Solve the following simultaneous equations.
i. 2x + y = 5 ; 3x – y = 5
ii. x – 2y = -1 ; 2x – y = 7
iii. x + y = 11 ; 2x – 3y = 7
iv. 2x + y = -2 ; 3x – y = 7
V. 2x – y = 5 ; 3x + 2y = 11
vi. x – 2y – 2 ; x + 2y = 10
Solution:
ii. 2x + y = 5 …(i)
3x – y = 5 …(ii)
Adding equations (i) and (ii),
2x + y = 5
+ 3x – y = 5
5x = 10
∴ x = 10/5
∴ x = 2
Substituting x = 2 in equation (i),
2(2) + y = 5
4 + y = 5
∴ y = 5 – 4 = 1
∴ (2, 1) is the solution of the given equations.

ii. x – 2y = -1
∴x = 2y – 1 … .(i)
∴ 2x – y = 7 ….(ii)
Substituting x = 2y – 1 in equation (ii),
2(2y – 1) – y = 7
∴ 4y – 2 – y = 7
∴ 3y = 7 + 2
∴ 3y = 9
∴ y = 9/3
∴ y = 3
Substituting y = 3 in equation (i),
x = 2y – 1
∴ x = 2(3) – 1
∴ x = 6 – 1 = 5
∴ (5, 3) is the solution of the given equations.

iii. x + y = 11
∴ x = 11 – y …(i)
2x – 3y = 7 …….(ii)
Substituting x = 11 -y in equation (ii),
2(11 – y) – 3y = 7
∴ 22 – 2y – 3y = 1
∴ 22 – 5y = 7
∴ 22 – 7 = 5y
∴ 15 = 5y
∴ y = \(\frac { 15 }{ 5 }\)
∴ y = 3
Substituting y = 3 in equation (i),
x = 11 – y
∴ x = 11 – 3 = 8
∴ (8, 3) is the solution of the given equations.

iv. 2x + y = -2 …(i)
3x – y = 7 …(ii)
Adding equations (i) and (ii),
2x + y = -2
+ 3x – y = l
5x = 5
∴ x = \(\frac { 5 }{ 5 }\)
∴ x = 1
Substituting x = 1 in equation (i),
2x + y = -2
∴ 2(1) +y = -2
2 + y = -2
∴ y = – 2 – 2
∴ y = -4
∴ (1, -4) is the solution of the given equations.

v. 2x – y = 5
∴ -y = 5 – 2x
∴ y = 2x – 5 …(i)
3x + 2y = 11 ……(ii)
Substituting y = 2x – 5 in equation (ii),
3x + 2(2x – 5) = 11
∴ 3x + 4x- 10= 11
∴ 7x = 11 + 10
∴ 7x = 21
∴ x = \(\frac { 21 }{ 7 }\)
∴ x = 3
Substituting x = 3 in equation (i),
y = 2x – 5
∴ y = 2(3) – 5
∴ y = 6 – 5 = 1
∴(3,1) is the solution of the given equations.

vi. x – 2y = -2
∴ x = 2y – 2 …(i)
x + 2y = 10 …..(ii)
Substituting x = 2y – 2 in equation (ii),
2y – 2 + 2y = 10
∴ 4y = 10 + 2
∴ 4y= 12
∴ y = \(\frac { 12 }{ 7 }\)

Solution:
Let the digit in unit’s place be ‘x’ and the digit in ten’s place be ‘y’.
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Linear Equations in Two Variables Problem Set 5 10
According to the first condition,
a two digit number is 3 more than 4 times the sum of its digits.
10y + x = 4(x + y) + 3
∴ 10y + x = 4x + 4y + 3
∴ x – 4x + 10y – 4y = 3
∴ – 3x + 6y = 3
Dividing both sides by -3,
x – 2y = -1 …(i)
According to the second condition,
if 18 is added to the number, the sum is equal to the number obtained by interchanging the digits.
10y + x + 18= 10x + y
∴ x – 10x + 10y – y = -18
∴ – 9x + 9y = -18
Dividing both sides by – 9,
x – y = 2 ……(ii)
Subtracting equation (ii) from (i),
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Linear Equations in Two Variables Problem Set 5 11

Substituting y = 12 in equation (i),
8x + 5y = 420
∴ 8x + 5(12) = 420
∴ 8x + 60 = 420
∴ 8x = 420 – 60
∴ 8x = 360
∴ x = \(\frac { 360 }{ 8 }\)
∴ x = 45
Cost of 1 book and 2 pens = x + 2y
= 45 + 2(12)
= 45 + 24
= ₹69
∴ The cost of 1 book and 2 pens is ₹69.

Question 7.
The ratio of incomes of two persons is 9 : 7. The ratio of their expenses is 4 : 3. Every person saves ₹ 200, find the income of each.
Solution:
Let the income of first person be ₹ x and that of second person be ₹ y.
According to the first condition,
the ratio of their incomes is 9 : 7.
∴ \(\frac { x }{ y }\) = \(\frac { 9 }{ 7 }\)
∴ 7x = 9y
∴ 7x – 9y = 0 …….(i)
Each person saves ₹ 200.
Expenses of first person = Income – Saving = x – 200
Expenses of second person = y – 200
According to the second condition,
the ratio of their expenses is 4 : 3
∴ \(\frac { x – 200 }{ y – 200 }\) = \(\frac { 4 }{ 3 }\)
∴ 3(x – 200) = 4(y – 200)
∴ 3x – 600 = 4y – 800
∴ 3x – 4y = – 800 + 600
∴ 3x – 4y = -200 …(ii)
Multiplying equation (i) by 4,
28x-36y =0 …(iii)
Multiplying equation (ii) by 9,
27x-36y = -1800 …(iv)
Subtracting equation (iv) from (iii),
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Linear Equations in Two Variables Problem Set 5 13
Substituting x = 1800 in equation (i),
7x – 9y = 0
∴ 7(1800) – 9y = 0
∴ 9y = 7 x 1800
∴ y = \(\frac { 7 \times 1800 }{ 9 }\)
y = 7 x 200
∴ y = 1400
∴ The income of first person is ₹ 1800 and that of second person is ₹ 1400.

Question 8.
If the length of a rectangle is reduced by 5 units and its breadth is increased by 3 units, then the area of the rectangle is reduced by 9 square units. If length is reduced by 3 units and breadth is increased by 2 units, then the area of rectangle will increase by 67 square units. Then find the length and breadth of the rectangle.
Solution:
Let the length of the rectangle be ‘x’ units and the breadth of the rectangle be ‘y’ units.
Area of the rectangle = xy sq. units
length of the rectangle is reduced by 5 units
∴ length = x – 5
breadth of the rectangle is increased by 3 units
∴ breadth = y + 3
area of the rectangle is reduced by 9 square units
∴ area of the rectangle = xy – 9
According to the first condition,
(x – 5)(y + 3) = xy – 9
∴ xy + 3x – 5y – 15 = xy – 9
∴ 3x – 5y = -9 + 15
∴ 3x – 5y = 6 …(i)
length of the rectangle is reduced by 3 units
∴ length = x – 3
breadth of the rectangle is increased by 2 units
∴ breadth = y + 2
area of the rectangle is increased by 67 square units
∴ area of the rectangle = xy + 61
According to the second condition,
(x – 3)(y + 2) = xy + 67
∴ xy + 2x – 3y – 6 = xy + 67
∴ 2x – 3y = 67 + 6
∴ 2x – 3y = 73 …(ii)
Multiplying equation (i) by 3,
9x – 15y = 18 . ..(iii)
Multiplying equation (ii) by 5,
10x – 15y = 365 …(iv)
Subtracting equation (iii) from (iv), 10x- 15y= 365 9x-15y= 18
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Linear Equations in Two Variables Problem Set 5 14
Substituting x = 347 in equation (ii),
2x – 3y = 73
∴ 2(347) – 3y = 73
∴ 694 – 73 = 3y
∴ 621 = 3y
∴ y = \(\frac { 621 }{ 3 }\)
∴ y = 207
∴ The length and breadth of rectangle are 347 units and 207 units respectively.

Question 9.
The distance between two places A and B on a road is 70 kilometres. A car starts from A and the other from B. If they travel in the same direction, they will meet in 7 hours. If they travel towards each other they will meet in 1 hour, then find their speeds.
Solution:
Let the speed of the car starting from A (first car) be ‘x’ km/hr and that starting from B (second car) be ‘y’ km/hr. (x > y)
According to the first condition,
Distance covered by the first car in 7 hours = 7x km
Distance covered by the second car in 7 hours = 7y km
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Linear Equations in Two Variables Problem Set 5 15
If the cars are travelling in the same direction, 7x – 7y = 70
Dividing both sides by 7,
x – y = 10 …(i)
According to the second condition,
Distance covered by the first car in
1 hour = x km
Distance covered by the second car in 1 hour = y km
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Linear Equations in Two Variables Problem Set 5 16
If the cars are travelling in the opposite direction
x + y = 70 …(ii)
Adding equations (i) and (ii),
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Linear Equations in Two Variables Problem Set 5 17
∴ x = 40
Substituting x = 40 in equation (ii), x + y = 70
∴ 40 +y = 70
∴ y = 70 – 40 = 30
∴ The speed of the cars starting from places A and B are 40 km/hr and 30 km/hr respectively.

Question 10.

Solution:
Let the digit in unit’s place be ‘x’ and the digit in ten’s place be ‘y’.
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 5 Linear Equations in Two Variables Problem Set 5 18
According to the given condition,
the sum of a two digit number and the number
obtained by interchanging its digits is 99.
∴ 10y + x + 10x +y = 99
∴ 11x + 11y = 99
Dividing both sides by 11,
x + y = 9
If y = 1, then x = 8
If y = 2, then x = 7
If y = 3, then x = 6 and so on.
∴ The number can be 18, 27, 36, … etc.

Practice Set 6.1 Algebra 9th Std Maths Part 1 Answers Chapter 6 Financial Planning

Question 1.
Alka spends 90% of the money that she receives every month, and saves ₹ 120. How much money does she get monthly?
Solution:
Let Alka’s monthly income be ₹ x.
Alka spends 90% of the money that she receives every month.
∴ Amount spent by Alka = 90% of x
= \(\frac { 90 }{ 100 }\) × x = 0.9x 100
Now, Savings = Income – Expenditure
∴ 120 = x – 0.9x
∴120 = 0.1 x
∴ \(x=\frac{120}{0.1}=\frac{120 \times 10}{0.1 \times 10}\)
∴ x = 1200
Alka gets ₹ 1200 monthly.

Question 2.
Sumit borrowed a capital of ₹ 50,000 to start his food products business. In the first year he suffered a loss of 20%. He invested the remaining capital in a new sweets business and made a profit of 5%. How much was his profit or loss computed on his original capital ?
Solution:
Original capital borrowed by Sumit = ₹ 50000
Sumit suffered a loss of 20% in his food products business.
∴ Loss suffered in the first year = 20% of 50000
= \(\frac { 20 }{ 100 }\) × 50000
= ₹10000
Remaining capital = Original capital – loss suffered = 50000- 10000
= ₹ 40000
Sumit invested the remaining capital i.e. ₹ 40,000 in a new sweets business. He made a profit of 5%.
Profit in sweets business = 5% of 40000
= \(\frac { 5 }{ 100 }\) x 40000 100
= ₹ 2000
New capital with Sumit after the profit in new sweets business = 40000 + 2000 = ₹42000
Since, the new capital is less than the original capital, we can conclude that Sumit suffered a loss.
Total loss on original capital = Original capital – New capital
= 50000 – 42000 = ₹ 8000
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 6 Financial Planning Practice Set 6.1 1
∴ Sumit suffered a loss of 16% on the original capital.

Question 3.
Nikhil spent 5% of his monthly income on his children’s education, invested 14% in shares, deposited 3% in a bank and used 40% for his daily expenses. He was left with a balance of ₹ 19,000. What was his income that month?
Solution:
Let the monthly income of Nikhil be ₹ x.
Nikhil invested 14% in shares and deposited 3% in a bank.
∴ Total investment = (14% + 3%) of x
= 17% of x
= \(\frac { 17 }{ 100 }\) × x
= 0.1 7 x
Nikhil spent 5% on his children’s education and used 40% for his daily expenses.

∴ Total expenditure = (5% + 40%) of x
= 45% of x
= \(\frac { 45 }{ 100 }\) × x
= 0.45x
Amount left with Nikhil = 19,000
Amount left with Nikhil = Income – (Total investment + Total expenditure)
∴ 19000 = x – (0.17x + 0.45x)
∴ 19000 = x – 0.62x ,
∴ 19000 = 0.38x
∴ \(x=\frac{19000}{0.38}=\frac{19000 \times 100}{0.38 \times 100}=\frac{1900000}{38}\)
= 50000
∴ The monthly income of Nikhil is ₹ 50000.

Solution:
Mr. Sayyad:
Mr. Sayyad kept ₹ 40,000 in a bank at 8% compound interest for 2 years P = ₹ 40000, R = 8%, n = 2 years
∴ Compound interest (I)
= Amount (A) – Principal (P)
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 6 Financial Planning Practice Set 6.1 2
= 40000 [(1 +0.08)2 – 1]
= 40000 [(1.08)2 – 1]
= 40000(1.1664 – 1)
= 40000 (0.1664)
= ₹ 6656
∴ Mr. Sayyad’s percentage of profit Interest
Maharashtra Board Class 9 Maths Solutions Chapter 6 Financial Planning Practice Set 6.1 3

Mr. Fernandes:
Amount invested by Mr. Fernandes in mutual fund = ₹ 120000

Question 5.
Sameera spent 90% of her income and donated 3% for socially useful causes. If she was left with ₹ 1750 at the end of the month, what was her actual income ?
Solution:
Let the actual income of Sameera be ₹ x.
Sameera spent 90% of her income and donated 3%.
∴ Sameera’s total expenditure
= (3% + 90%) of x
= 93% of x
= \(\frac { 93 }{ 100 }\) × x
= 0.93x
Now, Savings = Income – Expenditure
∴ 1750 = x-0.93x
∴ 1750 = 0.07x
\(x=\frac{1750}{0.07}=\frac{1750 \times 100}{0.07 \times 100}=\frac{175000}{7}=25000\)
∴ The actual income of Sameera is ₹ 25000.
