\n" ); document.write( "Let x denote the number of quantities \"shift 2\" actually produce.
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore, \"shift day\" produces 4x quantities.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Total production = 5,500 cars
\n" ); document.write( "=> $\"4x+%2B+x+=+5500\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"5x+=+5500\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+x+=+5500%2F5\"$
\n" ); document.write( "X=1100\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hence, shift 2\" produced 1,100 cars and \"shift day\" produced 4,400 cars this month.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Verification:
\n" ); document.write( "Shift day: Qty=4400 cars (4 times the qty of shift 2)
\n" ); document.write( "Shift 2: Qty=1100 cars\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Total= 4400 + 1100 = 5,500 cars produced \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
