Let x be the price of wheat flour per tonne.
Since Mart buys both wheat flour and rice for $10,000, we can write the equation:
x + 2500 = 10000
Subtracting 2500 from both sides, we get:
x = 10000 - 2500 x = 7500
Therefore, the price of wheat flour per tonne is $7500.

Let x be the price of wheat flour per tonne. Mart can buy y tonnes of rice and z tonnes of wheat flour such that: 2500y + xz = 10000 ....(i)
Given that y + z = 4, substituting this in (i) we get: 2500(4 - z) + xz = 10000 10000 - 2500z + xz = 10000 xz = 2500z x = 2500
Therefore, the price of wheat flour per tonne is $2500.
