Solution :<\/h2>\n

Let two friends named as P and Q. Let P has Rs x and Q has Rs y.<\/p>\n

According to Question,<\/p>\n

x + 100 = 2(y – 100)<\/p>\n

\\(\\implies\\)\u00a0 x – 2y + 300 = 0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0………(1)<\/p>\n

y + 10 = 6(x – 10)<\/p>\n

\\(\\implies\\)\u00a0 6x – y – 70 = 0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0………(2)<\/p>\n

Multiply equation (2) by 2 and subtract from equation (1), we get<\/p>\n

-11x = -440\u00a0 \\(\\implies\\)\u00a0 x = 40<\/strong><\/p>\n

Put the value of x = 40 in equation (1), we get<\/p>\n

40 – 3y + 300 = 0\u00a0 \u00a0 \\(\\implies\\)\u00a0 y = 70<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
