Steps: 2 Marks
Answer: 1 Mark
Price of one shirt = ₹y
So, price of two shirts = ₹ 2y
Rahul and his cousins will get ₹ 2y after giving back two shirts.
Now, the money they spent on clothes = (Money they spent before giving back the shirts) - (Cash they get back)
= (5x + 6y) - (2y)
Like terms can be subtracted.
⇒6y and 2y are like terms,
∴ The money they spent on clothes
= ₹(5x + 6y - 2y)
= ₹ (5x + 4y)
