    Two groups of workers have their drinks at a stall. The first group comprising ten
    workers have five cups of tea, two cups of coffee an three glasses of fruit juice at a
    total cost of RM 11.80. The second group of six workers have three cups of tea, a cup
    of coffee and two glasses of fruit juice at a total cost of RM 7.10. The cost of a cup of
    tea and three glasses of fruit juice is the same as the cost of four glasses of coffee.
    The cost of a cup of tea, a cup of coffee and a glass of fruit juice are RM x, RM y and
    RM z respectively, obtain a matrix equation to represent the above information. Hence,
    determine the cost of each drink. [6]
