Answer:

We conclude that:

The number of people who ordered the chicken dinner = 1

The number of people who ordered the steak dinner = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Some order the chicken dinner for $14

some order the steak dinner for $17.

Total bill = $99

Let 'n' be the number of people who ordered the chicken dinner.

Let '6-n' be the number of people who ordered the steak dinner.

Thus, the equation becomes

$14n + 17(6-n) = 99$

$14n + 102 - 17n = 99$

$-3n = 99 - 102$

$-3n = -3$

Divide both sides by -3

$n = 1$

and

$6-n = 6-1 = 5$

Therefore, we conclude that:

The number of people who ordered the chicken dinner = 1

The number of people who ordered the steak dinner = 5

41.8, angle y and the measurement angle labeled as just "138.2" are supplementary angles, meaning that when you add them together they equal 180. So all you have to do is subtract 138.2 from 180 and you get your answer which is 41.8.

M is the midpoint of LN. L has coordinates (-3,-1) and M has coordinates (0,1). Find N coordinates.

miskamm [114]

To get the coordinates, we would use the midpoint formula (google it)

(X1-X2/2 , Y1+Y2/2)

(-3+0/2 , -1+1/2)

N: (-3/2,0)
