(B) Let the fixed charge for the first two days be $Rs. x$ and the additional charge for each day thereafter be $Rs. y$.According to the first condition,Latika paid $Rs. 22$ for a book kept for six days (first $2$ days + $4$ extra days):$x + 4y = 22$  --- $(i)$According to the second condition,Anand paid $Rs. 16$ for a book kept for four days (first $2$ days + $2$ extra days):$x + 2y = 16$  --- $(ii)$Subtracting equation $(ii)$ from equation $(i)$:$(x + 4y) - (x + 2y) = 22 - 16$$2y = 6$$y = 3$Substituting $y = 3$ in equation $(ii)$:$x + 2(3) = 16$$x + 6 = 16$$x = 10$Thus,the fixed charge is $Rs. 10$ and the charge for each extra day is $Rs. 3$.
