Let the cost of a pen be Rs x.
Then the cost of a notebook is Rs (x + 5).
The cost of 4 pens at Rs x each = Rs 4x
The cost of 5 notebooks at Rs (x + 5) each = Rs 5(x + 5)
From the given condition, 4x + 5(x + 5) = 88
4x + 5x + 25 = 88
9x = 63 ⇒ x = 7
and x + 5 = 7 + 5 = 12
The cost of one pen is Rs 7 and cost of one notebook is Rs 12.
