Answer:

5x+2y = 50

1x+2y = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first equation,

5x represents the 5 hours it takes to build each vinyl doghouse multiplied by the number of vinyl doghouses.

2y represents the 2 hours it takes to build each treated lumber doghouse multiplied by the number of treated lumber doghouses.

Together the company uses 50 hours for this; this gives us the equation

5x+2y = 50.

For the second equation,

1x represents the 1 hour it takes to assemble each vinyl doghouse multiplied by the number of vinyl doghouses.

2y represents the 2 hours it takes to paint each treated lumber doghouse multiplied by the number of treated lumber doghouses.

Together the company gives 30 hours for this; this gives us the equation

1x+2y = 30.
