Solution

Let cost of one chair =x
Let cost of one table =y
4x+3y=2100
5x+2y=1750
Solving (i) and (ii)
Solving by cross multiplication
a1x+b1y+c1=0
a2x+b2y+c2=0
xb1c2b2c1=yc1a2c2a1=1a1b2a2b1
x3×(1750)2×(2100)=y(2100)×5(1750)×4=14×25×3
x1050=y3500=17
x=150,y=500
So cost of one chair =Rs.150 and cost of one table =Rs.500
