Equation

Dear expert, Here's the math problem. Bn can make x ornaments in 4 hours and Jerry can make y ornaments in 3 hours. Each hour,Jerry makes 3 more ornaments than Ben. Together, both of them can make (2y-x+5) ornaments in 5 hours. a. Form a pair of simultaneous equations to represent the above information and show that the equations can be simplified to 4y-3x=36 27x-4y=60 b. Solve the simultaneous equations in part a and hence, find the number of ornaments made by both Ben and Jerry in 5 hours. Please help - thanks
