Find the value of variables x and y for the following data using simple aggregative method provided the average prices of commodities have decreased by 25% over the given period. Also given is the relation between x and y defined by x=y3.
CommoditiesABCDEPrice in 2000 (Rs.)15105x23Price in 2006 (Rs.)9y3920

Answer: Option B. -> x is in the range of (1,8) and y in (1,2):
B
x=y3 --------- (i)
CommoditiesABCDETotalPrice in 2000 (Rs.)15105x2353+xPrice in 2006 (Rs.)9y392041+y
(34)∗(53+x)=(41+y)159+3x=164+4y
3x - 4y = 5 ------(ii)
Putting the value of x from (i) into (ii), we get
3y3−4y−5=0
Clearly y lies in the range of (1, 2).
Thus, x can lie in the range of (1, 8).
