Afactory has 161 workers. there are 92 more males than females. let x represent the number of males and let y represent the number of females. write a system of equations to represent this situation.

The system of equations to represent this situation is:

x - y = 92

x + y = 161

Given that a factory has 161 workers

Let "x" represent the number of males

Let "y" represent the number of females

We have to write a system of equations to represent this situation

Given that there are 92 more males than females. So we can frame a equation as:

Number of males = 92 + number of females

x = 92 + y --- eqn 1

x - y = 92

Total number of workers in factory = Number of males + number of females

161 = x + y

Substitute eqn 1 in above expression

161 = 92 + y + y

161 - 92 = 2y

2y = 69

y = 34.5 ≈ 35

Therefore from eqn 1 ,

x = 92 + 35

x = 127

Thus the number of males is 127 and number of females is 35

Thus the system of equations used are:

x - y = 92

x + y = 161

2 and 1.

step-by-step explanation:

plug in each answer. 0 doesn't work, 1 does. so does 2. 4 doesn't:

0 = 1 is not true.

2 = 2 is true.

4 = 4 is true.

8 = 16 is not true.

hope this !
