0Form the pair of linear equations in the following problems and find their solutions (if they exist) by any algebraic method :
(i) A part of monthly hostel charges is fixed and the remaining depends on the
P number of days one has taken food in the mess. When a student \( \mathrm{A} \) takes food for 20 days she has to pay \( ₹ 1000 \) as hostel charges whereas a student \( \mathrm{B} \), who takes food for 26 days, pays \( ₹ 1180 \) as hostel charges. Find the fixed charges and the cost of food per day.
(ii) A fraction becomes \( \frac{1}{3} \) when 1 is subtracted from the numerator and it becomes \( \frac{1}{4} \) when 8 is added to its denominator. Find the fraction.
(iii) Yash scored 40 marks in a test, getting 3 marks for each right answer and losing 1 mark for each wrong answer. Had 4 marks been awarded for each correct answer and 2 marks been deducted for each incorrect answer, then Yash would have scored 50 marks. How many questions were there in the test?
(iv) Places \( \mathrm{A} \) and \( \mathrm{B} \) are \( 100 \mathrm{~km} \) apart on a highway. One car starts from \( \mathrm{A} \) and another from \( \mathrm{B} \) at the same time. If the cars travel in the same direction at different speeds, they meet in 5 hours. If they travel towards each other, they meet in 1 hour. What are the speeds of the two cars?
(v) The area of a rectangle gets reduced by 9 square units, if its length is reduced by 5 units and breadth is increased by 3 units. If we increase the length by 3 units and the breadth by 2 units, the area increases by 67 square units. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.
