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!!

<h3>Appropriate Question :-</h3>
Find the limit
![\rm \: \sf {\displaystyle{\lim_{x\to 1}}} \: \left[\dfrac{x-2}{x^2-x}-\dfrac{1}{x^3-3x^2+2x}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Crm%20%5C%3A%20%5Csf%20%7B%5Cdisplaystyle%7B%5Clim_%7Bx%5Cto%201%7D%7D%7D%20%5C%3A%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cdfrac%7Bx-2%7D%7Bx%5E2-x%7D-%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7Bx%5E3-3x%5E2%2B2x%7D%5Cright%5D)

Given expression is
![\rm \: \sf {\displaystyle{\lim_{x\to 1}}} \: \left[\dfrac{x-2}{x^2-x}-\dfrac{1}{x^3-3x^2+2x}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Crm%20%5C%3A%20%5Csf%20%7B%5Cdisplaystyle%7B%5Clim_%7Bx%5Cto%201%7D%7D%7D%20%5C%3A%20%5Cleft%5B%5Cdfrac%7Bx-2%7D%7Bx%5E2-x%7D-%5Cdfrac%7B1%7D%7Bx%5E3-3x%5E2%2B2x%7D%5Cright%5D)
On substituting directly x = 1, we get,


which is indeterminant form.

Your expression could be:
$0.80a + $0.60b = $10.00
----
$0.80 ( 8 ) + $0.60 ( 6 ) = $10.00
$6.40 + 3.60 = $10.00
