Given:

Cost of 2 mixers and 1 T.V = ₹7000

Cost of 2 T.Vs and 1 mixer = ₹9800

Formula used:

Let the cost of 1 mixer be M and the cost of 1 T.V be T

2M + T = 7000

2T + M = 9800

Calculation:

2M + T = 7000      ...(i)

2T + M = 9800      ...(ii)

From equation (i), multiply by 2:

⇒ 4M + 2T = 14000      ...(iii)

From equation (ii), multiply by 1:

⇒ 2T + M = 9800

Subtract equation (ii) from equation (iii):

⇒ 4M + 2T - (2T + M) = 14000 - 9800

⇒ 4M + 2T - 2T - M = 4200

⇒ 3M = 4200

⇒ M = 1400

Substitute M = 1400 in equation (i):

⇒ 2 × 1400 + T = 7000

⇒ 2800 + T = 7000

⇒ T = 4200

⇒ 2T = 2 × 4200 = 8400

∴ The correct answer is option (2).
