Price of LED strip is constant at Rs. 150 up to the length of x meter and beyond that it is charged Rs. 22 per meter. If a person buys 17 meter LED strip, he has to pay total amount of Rs. 392. What will be the price of 23 meter LED strip? Correct Answer Rs. 524

150 + 22 × (17 – x) = 392

⇒ 150 + 374 – 22x = 392

⇒ 22x = 524 – 392

⇒ 22x = 132

⇒ x = 6

∴ Price of 23 meter LED strip = 150 + (23 – 6) × 22

⇒ 150 + 374 = Rs. 524
