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!!
p.s if you want to know how to use another method to solve these problems ( Substition) , just let me know in a comentary down here
You have two triangles, ADC and ABC.
Sides AD and AB are congruent.
Sides DC and BC are congruent.
Side AC is congruent to itself.
By SSS, triangles ADC and ABC are congruent.
Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent.
That means that angles DAC and BAC are congruent.
Angles DCA and BCA are congruent.
Since m<DAC = 32, then m<BAC = 32
Since m<DCA = 41, then m<BCA = 41.
Now you know the measures of two angles of triangle ABC.
The measures of the interior angles of a triangle add to 180.
You can find the measure of angle B.
m<BAC + m<B + m<BCA = 180
32 + m<B + 41 = 180
m<B + 73 = 180
m<B = 107
