Answer:

1 person ordered chicken and 5 people ordered steak

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have equations already given, lets solve to get the answer.

First, substitution

x=6-y

Then, as per the second equation.

14(6-y) + 17y = 99

84-14y + 17y = 99

3y=99-84

3y= 15

y= 15/3

y= 5

Then

x=6-y

x=6-5

x=1

We got 1 chicken and 5 steak orders

Answer:

$(1\frac{1}{2},1)$ - False

$(4,6)$ - True

$(18,12)$ -- False

$(0,0)$ -- True

$(2\frac{1}{2},3\frac{3}{4})$ -- True

Step-by-step explanation:

The points are

$(1\frac{1}{2},1)$ , $(4,6)$ , $(18,12)$ , $(0,0)$ and $(2\frac{1}{2},3\frac{3}{4})$ ---- missing from the question

Given

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$

Required

Determine if each of the points would be on $y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$

To do this, we simply substitute the value of x and of each point in $y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ .

(a) $(1\frac{1}{2},1)$

In this case;

$x = 1\frac{1}{2}$ and $y = 1$

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ becomes

$y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 1\frac{1}{2}$

$y = \frac{3}{2} * \frac{3}{2}$

$y = \frac{9}{4}$

$y = 2\frac{1}{4}$

The point $(1\frac{1}{2},1)$ won't be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for $x = 1\frac{1}{2}$ is $y = 2\frac{1}{4}$

(b) $(4,6)$

In this case;

$x = 4$

$y = 6$

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ becomes

$y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 4$

$y = \frac{3}{2} * 4$

$y = \frac{3* 4}{2}$

$y = \frac{12}{2}$

$y = 6$

The point $(4,6)$ would be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for $x = 4$ is $y = 6$

(c) $(18,12)$

In this case:

$x = 18;y = 12$

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ becomes

$y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 18$

$y = \frac{3}{2} * 18$

$y = \frac{3* 18}{2}$

$y = \frac{54}{2}$

$y = 27$

The point $(18,12)$ wouldn't be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for $x = 18$ is $y = 12$

(d) $(0,0)$

In this case;

$x =0; y = 0$

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ becomes

$y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 0$

$y = 0$

The point $(0,0)$ would be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for $x = 0$ is $y = 0$

(e) $(2\frac{1}{2},3\frac{3}{4})$

In this case:

$x = 2\frac{1}{2}$ ; $y = 3\frac{3}{4}$

$y = 1\frac{1}{2}x$ becomes

$y = 1\frac{1}{2} * 2\frac{1}{2}$

$y = \frac{3}{2} * \frac{5}{2}$

$y = \frac{15}{4}$

$y = 3\frac{3}{4}$

The point $(2\frac{1}{2},3\frac{3}{4})$ would be on the graph because the corresponding value of y for $x = 2\frac{1}{2}$ is $y = 3\frac{3}{4}$
