Answer:

Used: 1/4x +5

Left: 3/4x -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Monday: 1/4 of the x matched

1/4x are used

Tuesday: uses 5 more

1/4x +5 are used

Total used 1/4x +5

To find what is left, take what was started with x, and subtract what was used

Left: x - (1/4x+5)

        x - 1/4x -5

         3/4x -5
