Explanation

The context provides the linear polynomial for the total amount paid as 200 + 50m, where m is the number of matches. Setting this expression equal to the given amount of ₹750 allows us to solve for m, which represents the number of matches played.

Solution Steps

  1. Given expression: Total amount paid = 200 + 50m

  2. Set up the equation: 200 + 50m = 750

  3. Isolate the variable term: 50m = 750 - 200

  4. Simplify: 50m = 550

  5. Solve for m: m = 550 / 50 = 11
