Answer:
Using proportions, the pizza parlor should expect 20 breadsticks and 25 calzone orders if there were 100 total orders.
Step-by-step explanation:
Orders:
Salads 3
Pizzas 8
Sides of breadsticks 4
Pepperoni calzones 5
Total orders: 20
Proportion of sides breadsticks=4/20=0.2
Proportion of pepperoni calzones=5/20=0.25
For 100 total orders:
Sides of breadsticks=0.2(100)=20
Pepperoni calzones=0.25(100)=25
The solution is x=-4, y=-2
