This is an example of a composite function which can be simplified to g(fx). Literally input f(x) into the x of g(x), leading to the answer of 80x^2-120x+42
Please provide context so that we may help with your question
To change a percent to a decimal, you must move the decimal point inwards two places. For example, say you have 45%. To change 45% to a decimal, move the decimal point in two places, and you will have 0.45. Once you’ve moved the decimal, don’t add the percent symbol, because it’s no longer a percent.
The confidence interval is based on

Ok , with that information we can write the equations
x + y = 6
5x + 4y = 28
Where x = how many people ordered chicken
and y = how many people ordered egg salad
Through elimination , we can set one of the variables in both equations equal so we can eliminate it :
(4)x + (4)y = (4)6
5x + 4y = 28
4x + 4y = 24. equation 1
5x + 4y = 28. equation 2
Now we can subtract the second equation by the first equation and isolate one variable:
equation 2 - equation 1
5x - 4x + 4y - 4y = 28 - 24
x = 4
Now that we discovered our x value ( How many people ordered chicken salad ) , we can apply it to one of the equations and discover y ( how many people ordered egg salad)
x + y = 6
x= 4
4 + y = 6
We can shift 4 to the other side of the equation by subtracting 4 from both sides of the equation:
4 - 4 + y = 6 - 4
y = 2
x=4 and y=2
So the awnser is :
4 people ordered chicken salad and 2 people ordered egg salad!
I hope you understood my brief explanation!!
