Detailed Solution:

Let the price of P2 per kg be Rs. X. Then the price of P1 per kg = Rs. 3X.

1 kg of P3 P3contains

(27)*1,i.e.,27kgofAand57kgofB

Price of 1 kg of P3 = ( 2 7 ) * 3 X + ( 5 7 ) X = ( 1 1 7 ) X

P2y the given condition,

11X7=10.41.6=Rs.8.8 X = 8 . 8 * ( 7 1 1 ) = 5 . 6

Hence, the price of P1 per kg = 3X = 3 * 5.6 = Rs. 16.8

Price of P2 per KG = Rs5.6

⇒   b + 6 c = μ a               …(2)

From (1) and (2)

  b + 6 c = μ ( λ c 5 b )          

-> ( 1 + 5 μ ) b + ( 6 λ μ ) c = 0
