If $x - 2y + 4z = 6$, $3x + y + 5z = 4$ and $2x - y + 3z = 4$, then what is the value of $(2x – 3y + 5z)$?

Ravish paid ₹640 for a jar of 40 chocolates where the amount paid included the cost of the jar. Harish paid a total of ₹1540 for one jar containing 55 chocolates and a second jar containing 45 chocolates, where the amount paid included the cost of both the jars.
