Solution

Let the total monthly expenditure be denoted by E, some part of the monthly expenditure be denoted by x and the total income be denoted by I.According to the question, we have:x α Ix=k1I ...(1) And,E-x α I2E-x =k2I2 E-k1I=k2I2 From 1E=k2I2+k1IE=Ik2I+k1 We have:3500=5000k2×5000+k1 E=Rs 3500 when I=Rs 5000 710=5000k2+k1 k1=710-5000k2 ...(2) 6300=7000k2×7000+k1 E=Rs 6300 when I=Rs 7000910=7000k2+k1 k1=910-7000k2 ...(3)

From (2) and (3), we get: 710-5000k2 =910-7000k22000k2=210k2=110000 ...(4)Putting (4) in (2), we get: k1=710-5000×110000k1=210k1=15 ...(5)Equation of variation: E= I110000I+15 [From (4) and (5)]E=3000110000×3000+15 I= Rs 3000E=30003+210E=3000×12E=Rs 1500
