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!!

Answer:
77
Step-by-step explanation:
Firstly, we need to calculate the total score of the junior students and the total score of the senior students.
The total score of the junior students is 35 * 80 = 2,800
The total score of the senior students is 15 * 70 = 1050
The total score is thus 2,800 + 1,050 = 3,850
The average score of the 50 students is thus 3,850/50 which equals 77
Line passing through point (-2, -3) with a slope of -6 is (y - (-3)) = -6(x - (-2)) => y + 3 = -6(x + 2)
