Question 1 (a) A soap company produces two lotion soaps, Creamy and Creamy Plus in large batches. A
batch of Creamy contain 1 ton of oil and 16 tons of base, while a batch of Creamy Plus contains
2 tons of oil and 16 tons of base. In inventory, the company has 12 tons of oil and 112 tons of
base. Assuming the company wants to use all its inventory, how many batches of each type of
soap should be produced?

it would be 6xy and -16xy.

d, x=8

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.

5050

hope this !

the correct answer is $7.38
