The owner of a taxi company decides to run all the taxis on CNG fuel instead of petrol/diesel. The taxi charges in city comprises of fixed charges together with the charge for the distance covered. For a journey of 12 km, the charge paid is 789 and for journey of 20 km, the charge paid is ₹145.

What will a person have to pay for travelling a distance of 30 km? (2014)
Solution:
Let the fixed charges = 7x
and the charge per km = ₹y
According to the Question,
Putting the value of y in (i), we get
x + 12(7) = 89
x + 84 = 89 ⇒ x = 89 – 84 = 5
Total fare for 30 km = x + 30y = 5 + 30(7)
= 5 + 210 = ₹215
