Answer:

x=5, y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to multiply both sides of the second equation by -1 so that you can proceed the elimination process. Like this...

x + y = 6

x - 4y = 1

x + y = 6

-x + 4y =- 1

Now you can eliminate the x variable by addition process. It becomes like this...

x + y = 6

-x + 4y =- 1

5y=5

y = 1

Now, let's proceed substitution process. You can substitute the value of y into any equation that you want. I want to put the value of y into the equation of x + y = 6 .

When y=1, substitute into x + y = 6

x + 1 = 6

x = 6-1

x = 5

Hooray! Now you have the value of x and y.

x= 1 and y=5.

I hope you will understand my explanation. Bye!

A company has two manufacturing plants with daily production levels of 5x+17 and 3y-4,respectively.
Troyanec [42]

Complete question :

A company has two manufacturing plants with daily production levels of 5x + 11 items and 2x - 3 items, respectively, where x represents a minimum quantity. The first plant produces how many more items daily than the second plant?

Answer:

3x + 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Production level of plant 1 = 5x + 11

Production level of plant 2 = 2x - 3

The first plant produces how many more items daily than the second plant :

Plant 1 production - plant 2 production

(5x + 11) - (2x - 3)

Open the bracket :

5x + 11 - 2x + 3

5x - 2x + 11 + 3

3x + 14

Daily production of plant 1 exceeds that of plant 2 by 3x + 14
