Let k, y and z be the cost per kg of onion, wheat and rice. Then, we form a system of equations as follows
4k + 3y + 2z = 60
2k + 4y + 6z = 90
6k + 2y + 3z = 70
In matrix form we can write,
AX = B
= 0 - 3 (-30) + 2 (-20)
= 90 - 40
= 50 ≠ 0.
∴ The system has a unique solution.
The cost of onion, wheat and rice per kg are? 5? 8 and? 8 respectively.
